Math is discovery, not creation.
What a completely arbitrary distinction
I think the fact that AI sucks ass at even the most basic math proves that the difference between discovery and creation is, indeed, not arbitrary.

Lmao im moving the goalpost? That was literally my argument from the get go. Dude says your shitty for using/facilitating ai art. Dudes dead wrong. End of story
