image generation tool Gemini because it had thrown up images of, among other things, Black vikings, Black and East Asian 1930s German soldiers, and an African-American founding father of America. As anyone familiar with the non-existence of Hindus buried in Christian cemeteries, men admitted in maternity wards of hospitals, or communists in Goldman Sachs, these images generated by Gemini have no bearing in real life. They are, in the truest sense, surreal, adj. strange, especially because of the combination of items that are never found together in reality. Quite like, say, Salvador Dali's 1944 painting, 'Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bee Around a Pomegranate a Second Before Waking', where two tigers are seen jumping out of a fish's mouth while a white elephant with incredibly long stilt-legs passes by in the background, all while a naked woman is lying back unbothered by everything happening around her. Tigers, fish, elephants and stretched-out women have yet to complain. But quite unlike Dali and other surrealists, Gemini and other LLMs, don't really think up these images themselves.

wealth and spiritual essence intertwine, the concept of abundance unfurls its sails, with the winds of cosmic generosity. It is not merely a measure of possessions but an attitude cultivated within that beckons us to traverse the seas of plenty, steering away from the shallow waters of scarcity ingrained since childhood. The journey toward abundance commences with a deep introspection, peeling back the layers of conditioned scarcity. Despite the ostentatious opulence one may possess, scarcity mindset is rooted in our upbringing. Abundance, therefore, transcends the mere accumulation of wealth; it is an individual set of values and an attitude to 'give' generously.
