I think my context there was pretty obvious so it's somewhat disingenuous to take it out of context. Photography has largely taken over portrait paintings. I think photography has also largely taken over scenic paintings. I never said it completely replaced painting, it became a tool in the hands of artists the same way AI art can become a tool.
And I think artist will use AI to come up ideas for their art and use the output as a canvas.
Because that's the current use of AI. It doesn't mean AI will stay this way.
I'm not talking about those people and I've already mentioned elsewhere that their "work" can be considered questionable.
Let's say the artist trains an AI model solely on their own previous art and then releases some of those AI generated images. The person who likes the style or a particular painting, do they care it was made by AI? Doubt it, because it's in the artists style. The person who appreciates the process that went behind it, is "I put my previous works into an AI model and the model generated this image based on what I imagined this image should be" really that much less impressive than "I imagined what this image should be and so I sat behind my drawing board and drew it"? As for meaning, the artist still chooses what to release. If they release something it must have a meaning. I think it would be extremely disrespectful towards an artist to claim the art they chose to release has no meaning.
I thought we were talking about it from a philosophical point of view. I'm not about to predict the future and claim it could or couldn't be done, but let's say it could be done. Would that change your opinion?
