Does a good prompt an artist make? Here's a hot topic if ever there was one. There are entire philosophical fields dedicated to understanding what art is, but it's generally understood to be an intentional emotive expression of the human spirit. And yet now generative AI is able to instantly create stunning images, video, and music with just a couple of sentences.
This bounty ties into technological, artistic, linguistic, and philosophical questions. What is art? Is it ever possible for a machine to make art? Why or why not? Is AI 'art' infringing on the copyright of artists? Is the artist the software or the prompt-giver? Would you hang AI 'art' on your wall? Feel free to explore whichever avenue interests you most but be sure your answer attempts to tackle the main question: can AI make art?
We're looking for at least 100 words in your submissions. Feel free to enter by video too. You can also choose to supplement your entry with your own images or third-party images, but be sure to follow the instructions below if you do.
