I value art projects the same way I value scientific theories. A complicated theory explaining a simple idea is less valuable than an elegant theory explaining something complicated. If an art project is fundamentally simple, but its presentation leaves me with a lot of questions (and not in a good way), then likely I won't consider it particularly worth it to delve deeper into what the artist is trying to convey. I feel like this page could have been made a lot less opaque.

Happy Halloween. I am still trying to find a github link on their site - if find where the code is, please post a link here.

I am an old-time AI practitioner but in the last 5 or 6 years most of my paid work has been in deep learning. While I am sceptical that deep learning will take us to General artificial intelligence, I bet it will be at least 5 or 10 years before the well starts to run dry on deep learning, and by then there will be other breakthroughs.

This is detrimental to the public understanding of ML and AI, which is already in an aweful state.
