    No: It makes certain specialised subskills more accessible. AI can generate a song to you, you still need to know which song fits your game.

    Okay so at this point it’s sounding like an issue of semantics - you’re clearly saying that artists can use AI to help their tasking.

    I believe the other guy your responding to defines artist as someone who is able to create without AI.

    Y’all are hung up over what the definition of “artist” is, but you’re in agreement that generative ai can help those who are less skilled in the production of art.

      I’m not disagreeing with their assessment. If you can’t create art without AI, you won’t be able to create it with AI because you lack the very basic skills of being an artist. Art is not about the medium that art is expressed in, and having help with that medium doesn’t make the message art if it wasn’t art in the first place.

      No. I’m saying it can help those who are less skilled in the production of a particular medium to produce that medium. You still need to be able to artistically judge that medium. You still have to put the art in. It doesn’t come out of the AI, you have to add it in the way that you’re employing it.
