This is perplexing to read. What is the last piece of art you consumed that was generated by AI? Have you read such a book, seen an imafe, listened to an album?



...this post? If you didn't realize this art was generated by computers then I guess that proves my point.


Which doesn't clarify much given this post isn't a piece of art consumed by people. You can make "art" all you want for your own purposes using computational techniques. Fact of the matter is we still don't know how to do it similar to humans make books, musics, paintings etc...


I instantly realized this "art" was generated by computers since it has all the characteristics of computer-generated "art": All surface and no substance. Which is why it's not really Art.


This will eventually reach the point where a human can direct the process and the AI will fill the gaps. It would be no more weird than artists who throw paint on a canvas and end up with a coherent piece.
