  I prefer the term “AI Fabrications” because of the dual-meaning of fabrication. On one hand it implies industrial fabrication, on the other hand it implies fabrication as in a lie. Because AI is both of those simultaneously. It is industrially fabricated and it is a lie.

    In Croatian (and I suspect many other Slavic languages) art is umjetnost which literally means artificiality.

      Interesting. In finnish the word for art is ‘taide’. It’s etymological root word is ‘taito’, which means skill.

    Why not “AI readymades”?
