    “We’re watching the death of artistry unfold before our eyes,” a Twitter user going by OmniMorpho said in a reply that gained over 2,000 likes. “If creative jobs aren’t safe from machines, then even high-skilled jobs are in danger of becoming obsolete. What will we have then?”

    lol that’s a little much, but it does show how far AI has come to get this kind of response. They can now write music, write papers, beat humans at every complex game we can invent (like go), and make art.

    “What if we looked at it from the other extreme, what if an artist made a wildly difficult and complicated series of restraints in order to create a piece, say, they made their art while hanging upside-down and being whipped while painting,” he said. “Should this artist’s work be evaluated differently than another artist that created the same piece ‘normally’? I know what will become of this in the end, they are simply going to create an ‘artificial intelligence art’ category I imagine for things like this.”

    You know that would be pretty badass if he had painted this hanging upside-down, but he didn’t. He surely wouldn’t have been able to do it normally, either. It’s cheating. It’s like submitting a CNC-carved piece to a woodworking competition. It doesn’t matter that you told the machine what to do, a machine still did the craft. It’s dishonest and a kick in the nuts to actual talented artists that make beautiful things with their own two hands. That thing he did belongs in a coding competition, not an arts competition.

      I feel this person must have submitted this as a form of “social experiment”. It’s pretty clear it’s unfair to manual artists.
