Flying man and artist robots

 These days we are living in a strange and exciting times. Past one and half years have been buzzed up by the capabilities of AI where machines can answer any question you ask, write a story or poem for you. They can paint you a picture and even create a movie. It truly looks like Genie is out of the bottle. Will it make us superhuman or will it subjugate us?

Now it begs the question, what is real or what is unreal? Is a content generated by machine authentic for human taste? If not, then why not? Why is a story by another human imagination is better than machine imagination (or hallucination). With growing automation, it was predicted that humans will do more of humane things (aka search of knowledge and creativity). But even that is taken away from them, then what next?

It is not as if humans are not doing anything. Straight out of movies, men are flying around in jet packs. Can this become the main mode of commute in a condensed city of future world.
