AI generated art is not art in the sence it was created by an individual, which is what a lot of people are now claiming as their creations or artwork.. kinda the same as programming a cad system or plasma cutter to carve wood or metal. cnc machines are for mass production and are not the same as hand made. its not true "art" unless its hand made, cut, routed, painted.. whatever medium is used. digital art, if you draw, paint, color, animate etc... every aspect of it, it is art. if the program creates the background, characters, etc... it is not art. it may be following your idea or vision, but is not created by your own hand. some programs supply a catalog of avatars/characters you can add to from everything such as clothes to accesories. to claim these as your own artwork is misleading.... if you are an artist you should be able to take a block of wood, a sheet of steel or a piece of canvas and create a work with minimal tools or pallets, on the spot.......... if you claim an AI piece or digital piece of work, you should be able to sit down and draw that character freehand on a napkin in minutes. if you cannot, then you have failed.
