If typing a prompt into a plagiarism machine makes you an artist, why doesn’t paying a real human to make art for you also make you an artist?
If someone said they were the artist of something but it turns out they just paid someone else to do it, would you think they were a talentless jackass or an artist?
The plagiarism machine vomits out the visual equivalent of text prediction. It isn’t an artist any more than the text prediction on your phone is an author if you hit the next predicted word enough times, people are artists and authors. Image generation is at best a Xerox machine.
And why is that different from a human? Explain in physical, measurable terms.
Give we don’t know how our own brains work, I don’t think you can.
And if you cannot, you have to use the things that are measurable, which are external.
If I were asked by a person to draw me a fluffy trex, first thing I’m gonna do is go look at pictures of trex and pictures of other dinos with feathers, maybe some fluffy birds.
And then I’m gonna plagiarize, because art is theft.

They weren’t calling themselves artists, they were saying the AI/model is the artist.
Your comparison is a strawman.
Art is made by artists, who are human, and your argument is the fallacy fallacy.
The artist is the neural network

Yeah well that’s just like, your opinion, man.
Yeah, it’s based on knowing the difference between a tool and a human being 👍
I know plenty of human beings who are tools

Tdlr: get off your high horse
Bro, it’s not a person and it doesn’t think. This is embarrassing for you. This is like thinking there are little people in the TV.
Define think
I’m talking about the machine being the artist, reread my message.
