      It could give prettier results but that doesn’t solve the ethical issues (and even for the prettier part I can see there being fundamental limits)

        Raising ethical issues in this culture is like handing out speeding tickets at a racetrack.

        Also, we’ve married technology. We couldn’t stop its progress even if we wanted to.

      It’s a computer program that turns the hard work of artists and utterly ridiculous amounts of water into samey, uncanny abominations. To compare that to the moon landing? I don’t even have words for that.

        I don’t think they’re comparing it to the moon landing. If I say “Rome wasn’t built in a day” I’m not taking about Rome.

          Then say that instead. That’s a common saying most people are aware of. I’ve seen Silicon Valley types promise all kinds of shit before, so this just fits right in.
