how does a video of a hot knife cutting soap not constitute art? isnt the creator at the most basic level, expressing the act of cutting a soap with knife using a camera? hasnt he taken materials and transformed them into something new, just as a painter transforms paint into the painting? ANYTHING made by a human being is art. art is the expression of human creative skill and imagination. a child incompetently scribbling on a piece of paper with a crayon has created art. it may not be good art, but it is still art, because whether or not something is art depends on if a sentient being made it intentionally, not how much skill it required. an image diffusion model cannot create without human input. "ai" is not an autonomous alien agent who woke up one day and decided to create. without a human, it does nothing, just like a camera and a paintbrush. the image model executes the image creation, but it does not decide the subject, the themes, or even care about the result. A HUMAN does that. a camera handles accurate representation of light and form, but a human must still choose the subject. the problem is people are unwilling to accept that ai art is indeed human art, and when they see low effort or degenerate art, they blame it on the medium or tools. that is like blaming a frying pan for a poorly cooked steak. image and video diffusion models are so powerful, that it is extremely easy to create bad art, because most people will never be good artists. most art you see is bad art made by hobbyists. and it is easy to hide bad art education in more traditional mediums. bad art skills are not easy to hide with ai tools.
