What’s the artistic part in “upload photo to AI generator and write prompt ‘turn this into ghibli-style’”?

The humour in the comic isn’t mine, but I don’t consider using an AI slop machine as artistic.

Write a prompt? There's probably a button...

Art is in the eye of the beholder, you don't get to declare what is and is not art for everyone else.

So you think that typing the prompt “convert this photo ghibli style” constitutes art? You’re really scraping the bottom there.

The resulting image is not art and it’s definitely not the work of the friend in the comic.

No, I think that anyone who declares that they know what art is or is not is wrong.

Art is different things to different people, there's no objective determination.
