Like with previous waves of automation, the craftsmanship and skill is being removed from the equation.
Hopefully what is being left is a spark of creativity.

As someone who has terrible hand eye coordination, I can’t draw to save my life. Some of the things I’ve been able to generate messing with the AI services out there are fun but definitely are missing that extra specific thing(s) that make art unique and interesting.
I see why so many actual artists are annoyed or concerned. But for anyone who values the art or brand they want to create or have then human is the only way to go.
AI art has a weird limit and sure it will get better and better but I think those visual limits will get replaced by more mental ones nagging us something is odd about the picture

Well, it’s not art at all, those pictures are only the result of complex mathematical calculations. The art is somewhere else, in the programming of those AI systems. Now one could think, the linguistic user inputs, the commands forcing the AI to produce the picture, that’s now some kind of art. No, not even that. Because the AI systems could produce those commands also by themselves, shuffling billions of billions of word instructions for picture creation, so that any one day in the future also your intended and described picture would be produced automatically. So it’s at maximum somehow skilled programming, which one can call an art or gifted ability, although also that could be made by not so nice or well-structured programming code lines of course , but surely everything else indeed isn’t art in the usual and common meaning of creativity.
