New York Cares 🧑🎓
The Stand with Students initiative, dedicated to supporting underprivileged youth, will feature digital pieces created by Open AI’s DALL-E.
Pretty cool if you ask me!
The initiative aims to help support local public schools that have faced disproportionate socio-economic struggles exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
“In Web3, there is a desire and an intent for people to show that the space has tremendous good in it. Doing something like this is the best example to highlight the good.”
- Keith Grossman, Time president and New York Cares board member
The collection will feature over 16,000 digital pieces created by Open AI’s DALL-E.
Each generated artwork is created using different Winston Churchill quotes that are interpreted in the style of 13 artists including Andy Warhol, Frida Kahlo and Jean-Michel Basquiat.
You can mint digital artworks that are priced at 0.05 ETH (about $65) each. The site will be open to the public on Friday at midnight ET, and will close Sunday at noon.
