“Apichatpong: What are you, Sun? A star? A god?

Sun: I am the Sun, god of the sky and of all things bright and warm. I am the bringer of life, the one who brings light to the world.

Apichatpong: And what is your purpose, Sun?

Sun: I am here to shine my light and bring life to all things. I am the giver of life, the one who brings warmth and light to the world.

Apichatpong: And what do you think of us, Sun? Of humanity?

Sun: I think you are a strange and foolish species. You seem to think that you are the only ones in the universe, when there are billions of stars and billions of planets. You fight and kill each other over trivial things. But I still think there is some good in you, or else you would not be here. You have the potential to be great, but you must learn to work together and to respect all life."

A conversation between Apichatpong Weerasethakul and the Sun, joined by artists, writers, and thinkers, that is generated by the artificial intelligence platform GPT-3.
