This is related to my pet favorite question of who is doing the art if an artist uses AI (e.g. [input image] <text to image AI> -> Photoshop painting/masking -> AI Upscaler -> Crop and Print to Physical Medium?
I think I feel like an artist, but part of the production of this art feels like curation, and not precisely the practice of art. The eye for composition feels similarly artistic, but the inability of envisioning the final product at the early stages (pre-AI steps) of the work is very weird, and might be the bright red line. I don’t know how I feel yet.
I have a project titled “Is This Art?” currently showing at a local coffee shop - avoiding the issue.
