A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

the fountain is not random gunk, wth are you talking about? it's not "ready-made" lol; it's not like we consider all urinals art, and Duchamp just took one of them and said here you go. no, his act of taking it and turning it into a piece of art is what makes it art. again, context, origin and intent. it couldn't be further from what "AI art" is.

AI art is not lacking in any of those, context, origin and intent are all related to art. AI art generators were created by humans with the intent to create art and are displayed in the context of art or at the very least are used with such intent. Everything about it is art. Even the randomness is far from uncommon in art, for example musique concrète has randomness built in to many of it's pieces, those are basically RNG-mechanisms that create the music.
