It was once believed that no machine will touch the works of our great
Poets, Writers, Artists or Musicians
That no machine will surpass the works of
Hemingway, Whitman, Van Gogh or Mozart.
“Creativity is a uniquely human trait” we tell ourselves
And yet we can now see the coming tide of technology
In the forms of original art, music composition and novel writing
Encroaching itself onto the art world
Reminding us when Deep Blue defeated Kasparov
And making me question if the future of Art, Poetry and Music lay in the bowels
Of a soulless machine.
