“Oh, they didn’t. Nobody leaned the technique to paint this, there may not be any feeling behind it, or any point at all, other than ‘it looks good

"May" being the important word, here.

I suggest that if you cannot tell the difference between "someone who knows art did this piece" and "someone just hit generate" then you have no business critiquing art.

And I’m pretty sure that most people could learn how to prompt successfully in a matter of days or weeks.

...that won't give you art skills. It's practically impossible to develop an artistic eye, much less mind, by hitting generate, the feedback isn't sufficient, you can't train like that. No model prompts the same, btw, frankly speaking prompting is about the worst way to condition a model when you're out to create something specific.

The art is not in the fucking medium. Never was. Never will be. Come at me for this and I'll be referencing urinals on pedestals.
