As a kid I would just draw constantly and then throw out my drawings when I filled a bin that I tossed em into. I never considered trying to do a finished piece that I wanna keep until my parenrs suggested it, they also kept the doodles I was tossing out that they likes the most to point out I should keep my good stuff. The end result of art is a bonus to me. Whether it's drawing, models, other arts n crafts, or music, even digital shit like photoshop or when I used to mess around with flash, I have never really been primarily concerned with results aside from a period where I was convinced I should be, and stuff like playing in bands with other people does require a more results based attitude, you cant all just be doing your own thing. But for stuff I do by myself, my main motivation is just that I find it fun. I can use tools to make my imagination manifest and that's good enough. AI people simply arent doing art. Theyre doing a Google image search thst always gives them what they searched for
