Comment on [Serious] If a human is trained by AI slop and then they make something with their own hands, is it still art?

I think the problem here is the terms used don’t mean the same thing between being applied to a human or an AI. Terms like training, learning, creating, etc. are all applied as anthropomorphisms since we don’t yet have simple terms for how those things are actually happening for AI.

For instance, someone trained to draw isn’t shown millions of examples of drawings and told to make something that looks like that somehow. They are tought the mechanics of putting ink to paper in a way to create whatever image they want.

Even people trying to imitate existing art spend more time perfecting the techniques used than examining the works.

I think that as far as AI as we know it and art are concerned, the main issue the majority have is people typing a prompt and letting a computer do the rest. No matter what, that will never count.
