As a person who creates both visual arts and music, though admittedly for my own enjoyment alone, I can't bring myself to ever recognize any of the AI generated stuff as Art. None of it is any good if you look at it close. It's wrong in every way. The machines were supposed to come for our jobs, but that was supposed to mean factory production and construction and shit.

Most of what people generate with AI is shit because the people using it have no idea about art. When an actual artist picks up those tools you get quite different results.

The neat thing is that it doesn't really matter what kind of artist you are. You don't need to be a painter, a sculptor has just as trained eyes yet can prompt an oil painting. Heck I'd bet random musicians get significantly better results than the general population.
