I was on stable diffusion art and one of my comments got removed for saying the OP didn't "make" the AI generated art. But he didn't make shit the AI made it, he typed in a description and hit enter. I think we need a new word for when someone shared art an AI made, like they generated it or something. It feels insulting to actual artists to say you made art with AI

but I justify it by pointing to things like splatter or fluid acrylic painting.

The counter I would give here is that those are just techniques. The challenge, then, is whether the generation machine can be made to do things that are interesting and meaningful. I know it can produce spectacle, but spectacle and meaning are different concepts.

I don't know much Pollock, but isn't he valued largely for his process and expressionism? I'm not making this accusation of you, you do seem to actually care, but a lot of people who bring him up seem to think that his work actually is random and unintelligible—I don't think that it is.

I will concede that the process of interacting with the generation machine to produce something is a creative one, I just don't think it's anywhere near what a lot of proponents claim it be.

I've used Suno, and my lasting impression of it is that it was fun, sometimes really funny, and overall kind of soul sucking. As a musician, there were essentially no times that I felt anything produced there was mine. It was just novelty. Some of it sounded really cool, but none of it was an expression of me or what I was really looking for.
