AI art is real art because people get mad at it
AI art is real art because people made it.
Good to see people finally stop being a bunch of reactionaries about it.
Artists make art using tools. AI is a tool. Bad artists still make bad art regardless of tools.
EDIT: Getting down voted by n00bs that don't even know a DDIM from a Euler A but call folks 'prompters' like it's derogatory.
You've still gotta be good at prompt engineering to make great AI art.

You know what, I'll accept this.
