If you’ve read other threads you’ll see humans quite optimistic about how “ai” art tools have let them express themselves. And this is only the beginning of the commercialization of new tools, so I offer my wholehearted dissent that “AI-generated art” cannot be art. Style transfer has gone quiet but still my attention, for example.

I've seen nothing convincing along those lines -- just people fooling themselves with simulacra. But to be clear, even if I'm wrong about this, it's not worth the other costs.
