He should have put the printouts on display post-digestion, thus turning himself into a provocative parody of GenAI.

Nice of Dwyer to make his art edible. I expect this to be a stunt. It is exactly the type of thing I did with my friends in art school. We really thought we were edgy. I'm glad no one was there to write a snarky article about it, though there were people there to arrest us.
