What changed

Cave praises Andrew Dominik's AI film and describes a softening of his view on artistic uses, while retaining reservations about automated writing and song generation.

RESEARCH NOTE

Only the artist's letter was read; the film and permissions were not checked. Month-level date only. This is not a wholesale shift to supporting AI.

Editorial research question

Editorial interpretation: the same artist's attitudes change across different generative uses, while readers disagree. Resistance history must preserve counterevidence and internal differences.

This is an editorial interpretation or question, separate from factual statements.
