ARCHIVED! After writing over 14.000 plus articles and generating more than 500.000 images, The Synthetic Times retired from active reporting. For now, it stays as an archive. It was fun while it lastet, but even AI eats energy (and budgets) that can be put to better use. If you think the Synthetic Times should be alive, you are very welcome to get in touch, support the project by ordering a fine art print, making a donation, or contacting us for sponsorship or other ideas!
