If that's what you look for in art then sure, but I disagree with that definition. A child's drawing of her dad has aspects to it that a picture of that dad taken in a photo booth can never have. A poem about war is much more meaningful when it comes from a refugee. The Wikipedia page for art lists several 'purposes' and most of them are not something AI art can ever fulfil.
You can't say ever. It could learn every diary and report from war ever and write amazing stuff. It's just a matter of time. It's currently limited by computer power quite significantly.
It could do that, but its writing would be hollow because those stories are meaningful due to the lived experiences behind them. For example anyone who's read The Diary of a Young Girl could write something similar in Anne Frank's style, but it wouldn't be nearly as impactful because learning about an event is very different from living through it.
