Oh the Ai art generator has no "soul" and it's soy and reddit? This precious art form (illustrating things that other people pay you to, a medium dominated almost entirely by furries, porn, and furry porn) is being destroyed by the evil AI? I'm sorry that the democratization of art creation is so upsetting to you. I've brought dozens of ideas to life by typing words into a prompt and I didn't have to pay someone $300 to do so.
because depending on the context of the art, i.e. whether it's some sort of therapeutic self expression (the art I do), or someone trying to make something aesthetically appealing to another person, it literally does matter how it looks
everyone can technically put ink on paper and say they did an art, but now with AI art someone with no technical skill, training, or ability (whether artistic ability or the literal physical ability to make art, i.e. someone with Parkinson's) can direct the computer to make something that actually looks pretty decent, which might not matter to you but if someone wants to have some art to go with a book they're writing or an album cover or their Dungeons and Dragons campaign or whatever they're now able to do so (without shelling out what might be an unfeasible amount of money to pay an Actual Artist)
