Yep, and anyone that feels like it can be an artist, which is actually really really good IMO. Like a next step in our society.
I just hope those tax avoiding schemes like the banana and the CIA involvement could go and die somewhere (CIA has maybe stopped but what do I know). It’s so blatantly fake and decredibilise the whole art movement IMO.
writing a prompt does not equal being an artist. Just that you got an image out of an llm vending machine. Nobody sees the person, they see “stable diffusion”
Totally. But maybe one day you’ll spend 6 months prompting a fantastic movie, will that be art?
SugarCatDestroyer posted a good idea for what art is IMO. It sure isn’t 5 minutes of prompting an image generator, but don’t throw it all under the bus.
The thing is I don’t think a movie that was spent 6 months or 6 hours is worth watching. Because art has always has been about the human element in the development of culture. “prompting” is just tossing a coin into a vending machine made to attempt to privatize and control the free flow of that culture. “Generative art” is not a tool, it’s a medium. A medium made for corporations to completely control and regulate subjectivity. So yeah this medium, I’d throw it on the dumpster fire.
