Résumé
When AI can generate flawless work in seconds, what happens to the traditional craftsman?Wang Dashan is a master painter in Shenzhen who believes art requires time, sweat, and "heart." But his decades of experience lose their value overnight when his student, Ma Tian, leaves to start a rival company. Armed with AI, Ma Tian mass-produces cheap, instant designs, quickly stealing Dashan's best clients.
Pushed to the brink of bankruptcy, Dashan faces a brutal reality: the market demands lightning speed, but his pride refuses to surrender to a soulless machine. Simply working harder isn't working anymore. Can an old master adapt to the AI era without losing his unique value? Or will he be erased by the technology he despises?Tired of boring textbook dialogues?
