Prose requires skill. Poetry requires skill. Prompt requires you to press one button ad infinitum until you get a result that you like.
Do you really think typing “give me 1000 paintings with mountains” and then picking 2-3 which you think will sell makes you an artist?
The whole point of art is to take something from yourself and show it to the world. Yeah, there’s generative and randomly generated art, that’s what people do, take things to extremes. But there’s a reason only The first few people to do that are mentioned. Because the rest aren’t creating. If I take a banana and duct tape it to a wall, that’s not art. That’s just me copying someone. That’s what AI art is.
