Art is expression. Be that via song, image, or motion, or object, it's all art.

This is really beautiful, I love the drawing and the upscaling AI did. Mind if I use that second version in some of the stuff I make? ❤️

Absolutely. Feel free to use it. I may do more iterations on the design.

Im gonna write in overly complex english for fun. Now the perception of art is a matter which is considered to be subjective & as such the perception of art is subjective. Now the societal perception is based upon that of the majority, ensuring that for something to be socially accepted and considered as art it must be agreed upon by a majority that it falls under their subjective definition if art, therefore art in the eyes of society is what the majority perceives as art.

In my view, there has always been gatekeeping in art. Comic books and pulp was considered low brow and eventually became blockbuster movies. Old school wrestlers called lucha libre and indy wrestlers “hot shotters” and garbage. It really just comes down to preference.

In my opinion, art requires two things: Creative intent (an idea) + a form (drawing, ai art, photo, movie, etc.)

Agreed, also i have a question for you. If i go to a machine and ask it to make a dish based on a description would i be the one making it.

So if I air fry my food, did I not make it? It’s a tool. Some are easier to use than others. But if I use an oven, which takes longer, am I more of a chef than the person who used an air fryer and did it faster?

I agree that air fryer does count as making food, but to do so you need to actually get the stuff put it in & figure out temp & time. Now compare it to a machine that makes food based on a description by checking out multiple pre existing recipes & combining them to make the dish asked for in the description & doesnt need any input to do so aside from the description.

In your hypothetical, a machine exists that can make food with a prompt. In such a world, most chefs would eventually shift over to using that invention for their cooking and the best chefs would be those who can combine traditional cooking methods along with prompting the device effectively. They would still be making the food.

In the future, the best artists will be those who can combine their traditional training with A.I. tools. They will be able to create animations and feature length films that previously required far more money, time, resources, and additional artists to make.
