> AI art is about to lay utter waste to traditional visual art forms. This will be so much more destructive than what the Internet did to music. It will be a technological conquest of one of the great human avenues of spiritual transformation.

AI now challenges what we've always thought was unique about us, "soul" and crap. Some people who can't do anything else obviously get desperate. And don't get me started on the fact that "art" is not defined or explained nowhere in this essay. Let me define "art". Art is not Malevich's Black Square - that's 50%/50% crap/PR.

Art is ~90% work and ~10% ingenuity. AI cannot reproduce real art because no one will see any work behind it. People go to galleries not to just appreciate ideas, they go their to appreciate work. Real artists are safe. Sleep tight.
