to be quite frank in my opinion, if they are sentenced to pay anyone even a single penny, sam altman ought to also get the same punishment, except due once for every human he indirectly inflicted harm on.
Sounds like the filthy rich crying again. I doubt either Picasso, or Banksy would give a fuck.
Banksy would probably think it's funny
I wouldn't be entirely surprised if Banksy was providing them with real artwork and claiming it's fake
😂
Playing the long con, I see. Bravo, sir, bravo.
There's nothing infuriating about this.
It's still art.
Couldn't you just lie about being Banksy and make them prove you aren't?
