Just read this insightful commentary by @NBriz on glitch art in the context of AI. More than just reflecting the aesthetic of distorted pixels, glitch art is centered on using technology the "wrong" way. Definitely exciting to see new ways to create glitch art as AI evolves.

𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘆 | 𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗧𝗢 𝗚𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗖𝗛 𝗔𝗜 Prompt-based image generators seem unhackable. But a committed #glitch artist can still instigate interventions. Today, @NBriz writes on the propensity of AI models to create convincing 'glitch-alikes'. 📰🔗👇
