[QUOTE="Reynard, post: 9370834, member: 467"] No, if for no other reason that a person can see an image and build a story about it that was not intended by the visual artist* who created the work in the first place. * Writers are artists too and I think these discussion too often relegate the writer to a technician at best, while calling the painter/drawer/digital artists an "artist." When someone curates an image by an AI, they are acting more like an art director. But if someone writes a story and then uses AI to illustrate it in sequential art, they are still a writer just like a comic book writer is a writer. it would actually be an interesting thing to have someone write a short script for such a story and then see what a large number of people do to illustrate it, both with their own artistic talent and with the aid of generative AI. There are and will be fuzzy lines though. It may even already be a thing (I am not as up to date on image generators as I am on other uses of AI) but what do we call it if someone can sketch out a image or scene and then have an image generator finish it in various styles? Where is the act of art? is it in the idea, or the completion? And how does how we answer that question interact with all the other technological advances we have integrated into art?
