Remember how in Star Trek everyone is oddly infatuated with 20th century arts and culture? And, like, nothing has really been created since the 20th century?

It's because of generative AI, right? This is how we get stuck in a feedback loop of 20th century crap.

FOREVER!!

@jjfphd Even the older stuff that people are into is stuff that 20th century people had, well selected as still being interesting. Sherlock Holmes, Robin Hood, Shakespeare, Leonardo da Vinci etc. Nobody is, say, into an obscure 16th century French poet whose work was rediscovered and got popular in the 22nd century. Or Vulcan flute music, or whatever.
