    Humans are just flesh computers, but LLMs are just guessing what a human would say, not coming up with something new. AI art is the same way.

    Once AI can think for itself, legitimately, I think AI art can be considered art, and that’s a long way away.

      Yeah, in particular, Generative AI does not yet perceive reality for itself. It does not yet live a life. It does not go through hardships. It doesn’t have stories to tell that it itself experienced.

      It’s able to regurgitate and remix stories that were meaningful at some point, and superficially one might not even be able to tell the difference, but if you want to hear a genuinely meaningful story, there’s no way yet around sourcing it from a human.

      Generative AI is able to create pretty/entertaining artworks, but no expressive art.
