What I’m Reading:

Even so, even the thousands of fragments of images AI would use to make a non-existent child had to have come from children who’d been complete children once.

Where were they now? All of them, the maybe-real ones cupping their chins so happily here in the sun in the photo and all those ones whose images had been fragmented into digital splinters and borrowed and used to make up an aggregate image of a child who’d never existed.
