Back when I was in art school, we believed in this with all our hearts.
Bonus panel



So does posting a giant pile of diarrhea.
Or installing a urinal as an exhibit in an art museum? That one was pretty famous.
It also had commentary behind it with more depth than “press button to receive art”.
guess what a prompt is
‘I want my waifu pic to have enormous tits’ is not artistic commentary and slop isn’t art 👍
I take back my other fucking comment.
The actual context is more damning. Bro, they are out here taping bananas to walls and selling certificates of reproduction. It’s literally “give money to get banana”. We should be so lucky if someone instead told a computer they liked waifus with
bigenormous tits and we put that in a museum, at least there’s some human desire in there other than “MONEY LAUNDERING TIME! SURE DUCT TAPE BANANAS”yes, and “I got paid $300 to take a photo of this model with enormous tits” is 100% the highest art.
If a human made it with a vision then it’s art. AI is a wishing well.
also, again, a prompt is prose is a vision. Yeah, AI is a wishing well, guess what, so are rougelikes, and people find good enough expression in them to play them and find some interest.
If they want to make words their artform then they could. We already have words for that: poetry, stories, songs. The art is the words.
If a prompt is art, then “make me a sandwich” is cooking.
There have in fact been very successful art installations involving human waste and feces.
Cow bingo is art.
My lactose intolerance finally makes sense.
