Ai vs AI: Can you describe a sunset using only numbers?

Ai Weiwei: Unless we assert that numbers have the capacity to articulate anything including a sunset, numbers are incapable of expressing it.

Artificial Intelligence (AI): Providing a numerical description of a sunset is challenging as it is a sensory and visual experience that cannot be fully captured by numbers alone. *Source: ChatGPT

Jacob Canet-Gibson: Sunsets are numbers.


Nicole Emiliana: Sunlight is energy that can be calculated producing a sine wave. Factoring in atmosphere, I’m sure there are numbers in there somewhere.

Andrew Furst: Description depends on what you're describing it to. Until the rise of computers, description was a human to human activity. For one human to describe something to another there has to be a frame of reference in past shared experience (language). A numeric representation isn't particularly useful to humans. Most of us resonate on the word red. We have no idea generally what #FF0000 means. But a computer speaks numbers natively, so describing a sunset numerically makes perfect sense.
