    If we can’t explain the difference, AI must be sentient? This argument reminds me of “God of the gaps”.

      No man, that doesn’t mean that. I’m saying the artist for the banana piece is depending on the curator to do the actual creation of the piece, just like the guy writing the prompts for the AI is depending on the AI to create the piece.

        We might as well attribute that work to the curator, then, hm?

        Does the artist also get credit for how high up the wall the piece was displayed? Which floor or wing it’s displayed in? Because this is what AI prompter’s claim. They paint nothing but enter painter’s competitions.

        You get credit for the things you do, and not for the things you don’t. LLMs are built to decide for you.

          Yeah, so that’s a stupid thing that individual humans are doing. If you “hand made” a 3d model in Blender and printed it out and submitted it to a painting competition, you are not doing something right.

          You get credit for the things you do, and not for the things you don’t.

          So the banana guy doesn’t get credit for making the piece. what did they actually do then? This is my point: Either the banana guy is doing nothing and getting paid shitloads, in which case, not art, (lots of ) humans make trash, here’s an example, which means the AI guy is also not an artist, so fine.

          Or Banana guy is an artist because he came up with the concept and is an artist, and so is the AI guy because he also came up with the concept.

          I’m fine with either. I’m not fine with “banana guy is an artist, AI guy is not”
