@elenat yeah mimicking is the fundamental problem as those AI was trained on the sample from the “master” , and if we look at this from the angle of junior artist mimicking the master to learn then this process is pretty much same
Why not. Who said only us humans have the right to perform art? I believe there is nothing wrong with the ideal of AI art. Consider it another favor that it does for us for free.
The question of whether art created by artificial intelligence is considered legitimate art is an ongoing debate in the art world. Some argue that art created by artificial intelligence is a form of artistic expression, while others argue that art is human expression and AI is not. Ultimately, the question of whether AI art is legitimate depends on legislation and, of course, the majority opinion and their criteria in assessing the impact of AI
@antonikozelski yeah, when AI is used as tool and the amount of human work significantly involved then it’s consider as art. However how much is “significant” enough?
Well, the definition of "art" is so broad it's practically impossible to give a reasonable answer. Could I call it "art" if I really enjoyed it? Guess so. On a side note, some people, for example, don't consider video games to be art. So yeah, there's a field for discussion here.
As an artist, definitely no. Computers just follow (its programmer's) instructions. AI art may imitate human purpose, but I doubt it will ever be able to create with purpose.
