Calling yourself an Al artist is like saying you're a microwave chef.

Prompting an AI isn't art. If you're only describing what you want without doing any of the actual work, that makes you a CLIENT, not an artist. It’s like ordering from a restaurant and claiming to be the chef.
AI art is art. AI music is art. AI film is art. AI fashion is art. The brush doesn't diminish the painter. The camera doesn't diminish the director. The synthesizer doesn't diminish the musician. The algorithm doesn't diminish the vision. The idea is still human. The taste is still human. The story is still human. The soul is still yours. Photography wasn't art. Until it was. Film wasn't art. Until it was. Digital wasn't art. Until it was. Synthesizers weren't music. Until they were. Every new medium was once called fake. Every new tool was once feared. Every breakthrough was once blasphemy. Christie's is auctioning AI art now. The museums will follow. The textbooks will follow. History always does. You can stand in the way. Or you can stand in the frame. I know where I'll be. 🎬

It doesn't "empower." It doesn't "enhance." It's not just a "tool." It isn't "inevitable." You say these things to make yourself feel better about using or promoting it. It DOES regurgitate. It IS theft. It IS a waste of our natural resources. And it puts humans out of work.
