“I’ve used this instrument to capture a panoramic shot in a very peculiar position, with a precise light and a precise exposure, all to give a dramatic effect to the image”
and
“I’ve clicked the button of the food vending machine in a precise order, so, i’m basically cooking”
Stop deluding yourself. Ai is copy/paste with extra steps. You can write the “War and Peace” of all prompts, the program will still give you a random mesh-up of per-existent stuff with some nice filter on top.
Art isn’t just about making pretty pictures. Also, to dismiss something because it is derivative would also apply to any human creation ever made.
Everything that you say and think is a “mesh up of pre existing stuff”. Creation is a mixture of familiarity and noise, where the noise comes from your emotions, genetic makeup, and life experiences.
And if you are prepared to waste days upon days upon something because you want to create something nice. Why don’t cut the middle-man(bot) and just start train some skill.
You can’t say no to generative ai art because it’s not art 😾
Be generous & call it flattery.
ANYTHING is art to someone. Even ai art. Its nonsensical and shitty.
But art is in the eye if the beholder. No one gets to dictate what is or is not art to anyone else.
I don’t believe ai art is “real” art. But only a Nazi would claim someone’s art is not art to them.
People also used to say that about photography
Same difference between:
“I’ve used this instrument to capture a panoramic shot in a very peculiar position, with a precise light and a precise exposure, all to give a dramatic effect to the image”
and
“I’ve clicked the button of the food vending machine in a precise order, so, i’m basically cooking”
AI is a medium, whether it becomes art or not depends on who is using it, just as photography or any other medium out there.
Depending on who is using it ; It’s still crap.

That can’t be always done because sometimes AI itself is part of the exposition. Here’s my favorite example: https://youtu.be/7fNYj0EXxMs
