I think not having Trump making out with Obama is clearly a missed opportunity
“Artist”
As a long time artist in traditional and digital mediums, I get frustrated by this attitude. Is there a reason images made with this tool are considered less “art” than Pollock or Newman? Are photographers not artists, because their medium is too easy? I admit midjourney is bottom of the barrel for AI art tools, but they obviously had an intent and goal while creating these images. While I prefer stable diffusion, as I like precise control over every aspect of my creating an image, it gets the exact same response.
When people are creating detailed interactive worlds by dictating to AI art tools, will you refute the medium at every level of complexity, effort, and intention? It’s as ridiculous as when people were saying 3D art wasn’t “art.” Or anything made in Photoshop. Judge it how you wish as an individual piece, but don’t be so dismissive of new tools. They are a part of our life and creativity now.
Personally, I’ve have a wallpaper folder with around 7k+ pictures I’ve SD create for me. Am I an artist now? Should I put that on my resume? No, I’m not more of an artist as someone who commissioned an art piece from someone else. The only difference is that I tell an AI what I want instead of some person.
I’m not opposed to AI art, but I’m opposed to people who call themself artist because they put in an AI prompt into a textfield. It’s just a fucking cringing joke if I see someone like that call themself artist or “AI artist”.

Damn. Shots fired.
Pun intended.
Biden’s not married. Lol
