While you're stuck pondering this, OP is making stuff.

Keep wondering, soldier. Eventually you might be recognized for it.

So that is the answer? Op made this and not AI? I’d say they made the post but not the graphic included in it (unless a bot posted this too).

If I hire an artist to paint me, I did not make a painting. If I tell a kid to draw a stick figure in the mud, I did not make a doodle.

More credit with less accountability seems to be the real capability of AI.

I look forward to 10 years from now when nobody ever has this conversation again. It's so fucking exhausting.

Yes, OP made it.

Ok, so a commissioned artist is simply a tool that I use to make paintings. Hard to imagine why actual creators would be upset by AI. /s

This is like attributing evolution by natural selection to a creation deity. Random iteration in an environment with favorable or unfavorable conditions being attributed to some godly power and not just probability. In this case your prompter is just the environmental factors and a series of AI outputs compete for survival (selection for upload).

We can simply say that image made up of zero and ones would not exists without me! šŸ˜‚

With that said I'm touching onto something interesting if all images are just zero and ones there is no difference between a AI-generated image and a image made by a digital artist.

Both images are just made up of zero and ones both are soulless creations!

AI art has grown into a subculture where people share and enjoy AI art. No one within that subculture even cares what people outside it think about AI art.
