As a person who creates both visual arts and music, though admittedly for my own enjoyment alone, I can't bring myself to ever recognize any of the AI generated stuff as Art. None of it is any good if you look at it close. It's wrong in every way. The machines were supposed to come for our jobs, but that was supposed to mean factory production and construction and shit.

As someone who creates a variety of art in pretty much any medium I find AI art to be something deep and subconscious in us. It taps into something we can't reach unless on mind altering drugs. I find it to be an amazing study of the human psyche. I have never been able to connect to most "art" especially any of the classical stuff, as well as most music. While people enjoy and even request certain pieces of art from me, all but sculpting leaves me disconnected from my work because what I visualize and what create aren't thr same. AI art has that missing piece.
