Controversial AI art piece from 2022 lacks human authorship required for registration.
It is interesting that you could spend a week tweaking the variables in your prompt to get the desired results in your image, and that won’t be considered art.
But spend a second to click a button on a camera someone else made and voila, art…
It doesn’t matter who made the camera, in the same way it doesn’t matter who made an artist’s paintbrush and canvas.
It is the human’s direct involvement in choosing what to take a photograph of, and in taking that photo that determines it as art, even if it turns out to be shitty art.
The problem with AI is that no matter how good your prompting is, ultimately you’re not the one doing the painting, the AI is.
The camera is a tool you directly control, the AI is an independent entity acting on your instruction. They’re not the same, and that distinction is fundemental to this arguememt.
It’s interesting that you completely missed the point of my post and how there’s a fundamental difference between taking a photo and typing a prompt into an AI. :D
There’s a physical difference sure, in that one is way easier to use as it’s just a button you press while looking at something.
And generative AI is literally just typing shit into a computer without even needing to travel anywhere to get something even mildly interesting.
I know reading comprehension and wit isn’t the strongest point of AI chuds but you could at least fucking put a little effort into your trolling.
