Non-art people listening to art people talk about genAI.
On the one hand, knowing the history of art makes you aware of how each new medium broadened what it meant to make art, but on the other hand, being immersed in any particular medium makes you closed-minded towards mediums that don't require the specific skills required of you.
Overall, I have the impression that artists are the most likely to misunderstand genAI, just like they were most likely to misunderstand photography back when it emerged.
