I recently read a landscape painting book by Ken Salaz, intending to simply learn techniques. Unexpectedly, he talks a lot about the more meaningful aspects of landscapes and art. To slow down and contemplate nature in a way that's contrary to our current culture. An experience eliminated with AI.

I've come to believe that the acceleration of our lives as we grow older, is because we've become so used to things we see often that our brains write it off as something not to be paid attention to. Unless we either seek out new experiences or take time to appreciate old ones, we skim through life.

I agree, that does make sense.
