An interesting outcome of LLMs plus CNC machines would be reversing the much-lamented decline in adornment on buildings. “For an upcharge of $X00 per square foot, we can do a frieze in any style you can imagine.”

Something I know that most people don’t: Some time in the next decade it will be cheaper to build buildings out of stone, fabricated by robots, than out of steel and concrete.

So here’s what’s going on. We stacked the stone. We have a life sized statue of a boy and teddy (by Ryan Kingslien) and in the empty space we placed additional works by Ryan and other artists. With 7 pieces in a single setup, this cuts down costs tremendously.

@michael_diamant Like masonry and artisans just aren’t being produced at scale in America, and we can’t import artisans like we used to in the 19th/20th century I don’t think that’s un controversial. No idea what that building is.
