Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Art is communication. The thing being communicated here is that a social experiment of getting someone to ask if something is art, is itself communicating that it is art.

Sure, to a certain extent this is a s-grade shit post, I could also see the artistic message.

Or maybe I'm cooked, IDK.

I would consider a thousand AI slop jpegs as art before I consider that kind of shit art.

I will never consider AI slop as art, it is only plagiarism.

yeah, and what's a banana taped to a wall?

[–] SpaceNoodle 8 points 5 days ago

Turns out it was art

[–] Noodle07 5 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Art is something humans create to convey something, is random AI slop made without purpose and intent art? No

Banana on the wall is a statement, it's art. Now if we're judging the art piece itself it's a different question.

is random AI slop made without purpose and intent art?

it doesn't generate itself, someone has to actually write prose. The "artist" doesn't even assemble the banana taped to the wall, they write instructions for the curator/museum guy to do it for them.

Banana on the wall is a statement, it’s art.

What is a prompt then? Random characters?

That's why it's compete trash art 🙃

Your comment is art. Stupid poop covered art.

If you mean these bullshit "arts" like the infamous banana scotched to the wall I'm with you 100%

[–] Arrkk 3 points 5 days ago (2 children)

The banana wasn't bullshit, just presented out of context. It was explicitly mocking the current movement in art that anything can be art given the proper context, so by being as bullshit as possible it was both mocking that trend while simultaneously and paradoxically being what it intends to mock.

being what it intends to mock.

wow so smart much million dollars.

The guy who did it made six million dollars, so who’s being mocked here
