01: A girl labeled 'Artists' is holding a drawing tablet and pen under her arm. She is wearing round glasses and a blue sweatshirt. She has messy dark-brown hair and a brown skin-tone. She says "We don't really wanna MAKE A.I. art."
02: A guy labeled 'Art Enjoyers' holds his hand out while speaking. She is wearing a purple and yellow hawaiian shirt with a floral pattern over a white t-shirt, and has red hair and a light skin-tone. He says "We don't really wanna SEE A.I. art."
03: Behind them both, there is a cute girl in a business suit with a pink tie. She is blushing a bit and has pink eyeshadow, and looks upset. Her messy shoulder-length hair is parted in the middle, and held by two hairclips: one that looks like a red arrow pointing down, and one that looks like a green arrow pointing up. She says "Um ... I-Isn't there someone you forgot to ask?" She is labeled 'Shareholders'.
04: She puffs up her cheeks and pouts, a tear is on the verge of falling from one of her eyes. 'Artist Enjoyers' Guy is now in front of her yelling "AH!! SHAREHOLDERS-CHAN!!" while 'Artists' Girl is in front of her yelling "WE'RE SORRY WE HURT YOU!!!!"
No. There is a huge amount of art that is unskilled and requires little effort. E.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fountain_(Duchamp)
I think that depends how many prompts are tried, how much inpainting is done and how your loras are created.
Congratulations, you do not understand Duchamp in the slightest.
I'm disproving the statement that art requires effort.
You can't claim that Duchamp provided the effort behind creating the fountain.
Duchamp was calling out the idiocy in claiming the creation of a toilet did not require (someone's) skilled labor and therefore did not count as art. You have completely misunderstood the assignment.
But until he signed it, it wasn't art.
No. When he signed it people payed attention. There's a difference. It's still art if no one notices it.
The same argument. AI is still producing art, even if you don't appreciate it.
It’s not, though.
