AI or Not AI?

As should be obvious, none of the images or writings on this website are generated automatically from expert computer systems, often called artificial intelligence or AI. Although digital technology plays a part in producing the final product, the creation of all images starts off manually with a small non-electronic device called in various locales a lapes, Bleistift, lápiz, қалам, galam, עפרון 铅笔, ipensela, blyant, and pencil.

Similarly the accompanying essays - and the coding that brings the pages to their visibility and the occasional musical embellishments - are all created using technology powered by 28 human phalanges and the cerebrum.
