In the tale of Narcissa, we encounter a young woman of unmatched beauty who becomes captivated by her own reflection. As she gazes upon her image, she becomes entranced, eventually dying while gazing at her perfect reflection.
This story can be seen as an analogy for the allure and potential pitfalls of AI art. The emergence of AI in the creative process has introduced novel and exciting possibilities, generating a powerful dopamine-driven feedback loop.

the addictive nature of this feedback loop might lead artists to forsake their unique style and voice, relying solely on AI algorithms for artistic decision-making. In doing so, they risk losing touch with their artistic identity, becoming mere vessels for the technology.
