THOUGHTS ON AI-GENERATED ART
BY EDWARD STEURY
STAFF WRITER
AI-generated art is a strange and wonderful field, and although some are concerned about its impacts on art and the expression of creative freedom, I am here to somewhat naively sway that belief. To begin, I should perhaps explain the brief history of AI-generated art. The first real boom in public interest came from DALLE Mini, a small program that would generate nine blurry, incomprehensible piles of visual noise that sometimes vaguely resembled what you asked for. To me, interest was only gained because people looked upon DALLE Mini as a joke or because they were worried. After all, they supposed, “That blob of red kind of looks like a solo cup!

BY SAMUEL ELLINGSON
STAFF WRITER
If you have been paying attention to social media for the past couple of months, you would know that the internet has recently become obsessed with a new game, Wordle. The objective is simple: figure out what the five letter word is in six guesses or less. As you play, letters that are not in the word are grayed out, letters that are in the word are shaded in yellow, and letters that are in the correct position are shaded green. Using the different clues, players need to identify the new word that refreshes every 24 hours.

BY NOAH FONTANESI
STAFF WRITER
Disclaimer: This is not a spoiler free review.
When it comes to Asian representation in the media, it can be quite mediocre or not even exist. That was probably the first thing that drew me to Dragon Pearl as well as the interesting mix of science fiction and mythology based fantasy. Besides, everything that has a dragon is automatically good in my opinion.
