@mitch back in the day I think we all felt that it was something about applying photo copies to humans. It likely fell away when we realised that a copy of a jpeg was identical to the original. And then we realised that they weren’t. And then we discovered how much none of us knew about what copies were actually doing - like being a source of phishing and ransom ware - and that you have to have your wits about you …

And then suddenly ‘digital twins’ are good?

Do we learn nothing?

It’s like ‘Artificial Intelligence’❓When did ‘Artificial’ become a good thing? (🖇️ Me in 2019)
