Do not confuse “I typed these words” with “I made this art.”

Read this before and worth reading again. I especially liked his postscript:
"Another thing. If you ever find yourself seeing AI-generated work and want to throw in the towel — please don’t.
What does what anyone else is doing have to do with what YOU want to do?
There are artists here in Asheville who look at our Photoshop Artistry stuff and to them it’s almost the equivalent of AI. Because they’re working with physical mixed media, actual paints on actual canvases.
But they don’t just throw in the towel. They’re artists. They love creating art in their own way.
They’re not in it for a competition.
They’re not comparing. They’re creating.
So keep doing your thing. Each artist is on his or her own journey. It’s about that journey … and about finding your own joy along that journey!"

AI generated images are fine for fun or interest but it for me it can't take the place of coming up with an idea and then putting it into practice ..or simply experimenting (like I sometimes do) and coming up with an image pleasing to look at. I don't think AI is a worry for those of us working at hobby or pastime level.
It could be a concern for commercial artists. I hope they don't suffer as a result. Businesses needing a quick inexpensive image might just decide they can generate their own to suit requirements.
