Take the computer from a real artist, they can still make art. Do the same to an AI "artist" and see how long they keep claiming to be such. (pawb.social)

Being good at prompting AI to generate art is like being good at using a search engine to find a specific picture.

~~Search engine~~ AI artists!

It's a lot like commissioning something from an artist. You have to describe what you want, with the style, details and mood you want to see, then maybe go back and forth a few times until it's just right. Doing that well is a skill, so are things like art direction. But replacing the humans executing on the direction with a machine doesn't suddenly make the directing human an artist.
