Neither is paint.
I’d say making an effort to create a picture with paint is far more worthy of being called art than entering a prompt into a computer for an image output.
Trolling is a art
A seasoned curator of cultural artefacts are we?
I'd say that was the last sentence uttered that made sense on the Internet, before the dark times, before the iPhone.
That's definitely more of an art than AI
And someone with training using horse hair brushes, rabbit fat glue, okra oil paints and seal skin canvases would say that a kid with some shit and a wall to draw on is beneath their level of competance.
But someone once painted the walls of caves with their chewed up food, and without them we wouldn't have the Sistine Chapel ceiling today.
Art is any expression, and refining it is what brings elegance and sophistication.
Today's most perfect music will be as wild as a primal scream when given enough time.
It's the message being inferred with AI, the onlooker becomes part of the piece.
Art is a combination of idea and execution. If one of these is sufficiently brilliant, it may compensate for the other.
AI is, for the most part, a type of execution. If you find yourself enjoying a particular AI creation, it is probably because the ideas behind it are extra smart - smart enough to qualify as art.
Agreed.
Some people would dismiss Piet Mondrian, Joan Miro or Henri Matisse as fumbling finger painters with limited colours at their disposal.
And they'd be right.
But for those who can see beyond the simple and into the purpose for it being simple. There's an elegance they each capture so vividly, and uniquely, that transcends many of their works to the sublime.
Lots of AI work will be finger paintings by comparison to their human artists' efforts. But an artist who uses AI well will bring forth something which evokes something in those who perceive it, and that is a special magic which isn't always available to everyone.
Toulouse-Lautrec made his money advertising bars, but that's not the only thing people associate with his works. Perhaps some AI artists will gain fame for their use in bringing about a new medium to the schools of art ;)
Sure! I'd disagree with them though. There will always be pretentious artists out there.
But a prompt fed into a computer with AI characters and voices churned out is not "art expression." It's beneath painting caves with chewed up food, because that actually takes effort, time, courage, emotion.
Letting a computer do the work for you after you show it content that other people made? Nah.
Fucken lol.
Anyone who takes this...ahem..."piece" seriously is retarded.
Have you looked at the world recently?
