Art is in the act of creating it. Not in the final product to be bought and sold on the market.

A kid coloring is making art. The joy they get in the making is the art and is the point.

I feel sorry for so many people in this thread who keep approaching this from the point of view of consumer markets. It doesn't matter if someone can determine an AI colored picture from a child's. The AI derives no joy in the creation. It's not art, but a copy.

Art is in the act of creating it.

This is just your opinion.

Not in the final product to be bought and sold on the market.

This isn't inevitable or necessary.

Personally I enjoy generated art (mostly scifi/fantasy) and I never pay for it.

On the other hand I try to support actual artists because they're most often struggling under capitalism much more than some person using midjourney or wahtever.
