you can hate it or love it but you cannot ignore it now
Sure we can. AI art in just a few clicks while ripping off from another piece of art that took great amount of work, no thanks. It kills the point of making art and draws away income to those who really deserve it. Imo.
You have a valid point, and I agree with you completely. No AI generated artwork can match the strokes painted on a canvas with Van Gogh himself.
It's not to undermine the requiried knowledge and skillset to set up the ai to do it. The images created from the art itself serves as fun examples of itself. Fun because it leaves the user to openly and freely add on his/her own creativity... at the push of a few buttons.
Which holds its own value. Hmn. I guess I almosy dug myself into a hole here. It's subjective. Eye of the beholder. Carry on good sir.
