Okay, well if you’re going to be like that, I’ll talk to someone else:
An artists job is to pull together research, resources, history, knowledge, opinions, their own fluency in the language of the medium they’re using, and a bit of inspiration, and turn that into something interesting, or cool, or flashy, or thought provoking.
AI generation, even for the concept phase, skips 90% of that effort.
You can’t fabricate something with AI and then re-make it by hand later because these are two halves of the same process. By the time the hands are involved, there is very little left for them to do.
That’s a narrow definition of an art that doesn’t apply to real life. Like it or not, Marcel Duchamp won the argument over whether or not he was an artist.
