If they are creating art, they are, by literal definition, an artist. By that logic, if I tell somebody to paint me something, I'm an artist. The core concept behind AI art is functionally no different than an editor commissioning art. You make a request, you ask for amendments to the art, but by definition you are NOT the artist, you are merely the person having the art made for them. And the instructions for telling a real person to create art and for a machine to create art are very much the same thing. The AI is replacing the person who'd make the art. And, by the way, even THAT isn't a unique concept. Prior to AI, you'd have services that took commissions for art then subcontracted that work out to people paid pennies for their work. adjl posted... AI, however, does all the creation for you. Conceptually, it's identical to commissioning an artist to create something for you: You come up with an idea of what you want, you take that idea to somebody that has the skills needed to express that idea, and you work with what they've given you to fine-tune it to your needs/desires. The only real difference is that you don't have to pay for the commission because it's not a person doing it for you. ...damnit, I should've scrolled a bit further so I could see adjl beat me to it. However, I would note that a lot of generative AI does have fees attached to the service, so you're often still paying something. But usually it's closer to the rates for the subcontracted work rather than the contracted work. JOExHIGASHI posted... I don't know how AI learning art works. Does it steal images or parts of images to create art? Technically, it can do both. Because generative AI doesn't necessarily recognize elements, it can figures from a piece of artwork and put them as-is into another artwork (ie, no change to the figure itself). In theory, it's creating new composition. In some cases, that involves recreating existing material and in other cases it might reuse it. However, there's so much content out there that it's tough to determine what belonged to what, outside of famous works. --- Everybody's got a price / Everybody's got to pay / Because the Million Drachma Man / Always gets his way.
