Seriously though, this "art" comparison stuff is entirely missing the point of art to begin with. Art is all about expression, not skill. Skill will make you a good artisan or craftsman, but it's your ability to express yourself that makes you an artist. This is why a banana taped to a wall is art, because it's a statement about something. The art is in the narrative. Whether it's "good" art depends on its impact. Neither Pollock nor Picasso is valued based on skill, but on what their art represents. It's not about beauty or technique, it's about having a voice and something to say. The Mona Lisa may be a beautiful painting, but her value lies in what she represents. No one can paint a "better" Mona Lisa, because the merit doesn't lie within the style, technique, skill, or anything else that can be processed and replicated. There is no other version of Mona Lisa that can replace her significance within our history of art. Any copy or derivative would only confirm and increase the value of the original. A.I. art is "soulless" because it's not made to express, it's made to sell. It's all about optimisation and conformity. An artist is passionate about becoming a better artist, to find their own voice, to understand their craft, and getting better at their skills. A.I. is a tool specifically made in order to AVOID doing work. To avoid practice, to avoid learning, to avoid thinking, and to avoid experiencing. It's a robot that may harness all your skills and may produce designs according to specifications, but it will never produce art, because it has no voice of its own, and neither does A.I. tech bros who can't tell the difference between art and graphics.
