I seriously recommend this video explaining that We Do Not Know How AI Actually Works
For all the people saying it's just "autocomplete" or throwing together chunks of other people's text, etc... This breaks down what we do know, and what we don't, and why we have so few safeguards on it

Johann Sperl
Johann Sperl (Buch, 3 novembre 1840 - Bad Aibling, 29 juillet 1914) était un artiste peintre, dessinateur et lithographe allemand.
Né Johann Spörl, il est le fils unique d'un couple d'agriculteurs de la Moyenne-Franconie. En 1854, sorti premier de sa classe, le pasteur du village de Buch remarque les talents de dessinateur du garçon et lui trouve un travail d'illustrateur. En 1856, son père meurt, ce qui l'oblige à devenir soutien de famille. Il exerce alors le métier de lithographe. En 1858, il passe le concours de l'académie des beaux-arts de Nuremberg, dirigée à cette époque par le peintre d'histoire et sculpteur August von Kreling. Durant sa formation, Johann Sperl y rencontre deux condisciples, Rudolf Hirth du Frênes et Theodor Alt, et forme avec eux un trio d'amis. En 1863, Johann Sperl devient directeur d'une firme lithographique, puis démissionne deux ans plus tard, ayant économisé assez d'argent pour tenter le concours de l'académie des beaux-arts de Munich.
À Munich, Sperl étudie dans les classes de Hermann Anschütz et Karl von Piloty. Il devient l'ami intime de Wilhelm Leibl. En 1866, Arthur von Ramberg est nommé directeur d'étude à Munich et Sperl devient peu à peu son assistant, s'ouvrant à de plus grandes compositions, affirmant son art. Il est possible qu'il découvre avec Leibl l'exposition de Gustave Courbet à Munich en 1869. Entre 1870 et 1873, Sperl fait partie du Cercle de Leibl (Leibl-Kreis). En 1878, Sperl et Leibl s'installent à Berbling, près de Bad Aibling. Il croise Max Liebermann l'année suivante, à Munich. À partir des années 1880, Sperl se tourne vers des paysages de grand format.
En 1882, Sperl s'installe pour peindre à Kraiburg am Inn. L'année suivante, il retrouve Leibl dans son nouvel atelier à Bad Aibling, les deux amis peignent ensemble. En 1899, Leibl entreprend un long voyage en Italie, il passe par Florence, Sienne et Venise. Leibl meurt en 1900.
À Bad Aibling, Sperl souffre d'une violente attaque durant l'été 1910 qui le laisse à moitié paralysé. Il meurt quatre jours avant le début de la Première Guerre mondiale. Son dernier vœux fut de reposer dans la même sépulture que son ami Wilhelm Leibl, dans le cimetière de Wurtzbour.

in reply to Shiri Bailem • • •From what I've seen (from the host's side) a lot depends on the company/institution. For example, our university has a dedicated international office, that can take care of a lot of the admin.
In smaller companies, this is usually the job of the office manager, so it's a bit less predictable whether they will have the bandwidth.
Depending on the city, the biggest issue is going to be housing. Expect to pay a lot and expect the host not to be able to help out.
