In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

Many years ago, when Twitter was still a hub for science discussion, I used to joke that I would stop using Twitter when I reached 6666 followers. I didn't think it would happen but it seems like here we are 50% of these 6666 are probably bots though... + I don't use Twitter now

Our picture "Eye Spy" made it into the C&EN Chempics Bracket Challenge! Lots of beautiful pictures on display! You can vote for any of them in the link in the thread.

Bonus 1: We were able to (loosely) track the growth of particles within our hydrogels. It gave us some beautiful images. We called this one "Sauron"

Bonus 2: I wrote my first grant on this idea. It was rejected. A reviewer didn't think it would work, another reviewer didn't think it would be able to significantly improve part quality. I'm glad we persisted.
