A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Plenty of artists don't make their art in that way. Most of the grand masters of the past had underlings who did most of the painting, and since Duchamp found objects have been considered valid art.
I wouldn't consider someone who didn't do the painting themselves to be the artist of a painting either. You could call them the art director or something, but they are at most a coauthor of the art. They are not making all of the artistic decisions. That's pretty similar to AI art.
Found objects have about the same artistic value as well-made AI art too, yeah. You're going through a selection process to find something that appears pleasing. I think AI art is more similar to directing, but found art isn't far off.
