This is an article I found about technology radically changing something I don't normally think about when I think about when I think of technology: art. One of my favorite quotes from it is: "Knowledge is more democratized now," which describes how accessible information is now that once was only reserved for the elite and "specialists." The author talks about competition becoming fierce and the number of paintings per day that can be examined being 4 or 5 times what it used to be. He also discovered a Rembrandt self-portrait that was originally attributed to someone else, increasing the painting's worth from 3000 to 40 million. Thank you computers!!
