That douche punched a sentence into a computer and thinks he’s an artist? My god what have we become.
Dude just pointed a camera, pressed click and thinks he's an artist? My god what have we become. We could take that train of thought all the way to "if you're not grinding up your own pigments and painting on cave walls you're not really an artist".
AI is a tool. I don't have an issue with someone using AI and calling themselves an artist, as long as they've generated the AI model based on their own previous art. You teach a machine to mimic your brush strokes and color palette and then the machine spits out images as you taught it. I don't see an issue there because you might as well have painted them yourself, it just saves time to have AI do most (if not all) of the work.
Problems arise when the AI is based on someone else's work and you claim the output as yours. Could you have painted the image exactly the same way?
This artist didn't "teach" the AI anything though. No more than I "teach" my computer something when I do file search using operands like "+" and "-"
oh look, someone who knows nothing about the topic spewing shite again!
