MODERATORS
As I understand it, the core purpose of art is communication. Using a graphical editor to create web pages is still honest art in my opinion, because although you're assembling it out of larger primitives, you're still communicating a substantial message. It's similar to collage; the pieces you've assembled aren't your work, and the viewer knows that. The important part is how they're arranged and the message that arrangement communicates.
AI-generated art feels deceptive and hollow to a lot of people because when we see art, we expect it to communicate something substantial, but in the case of AI art, the model can't magically add more meaning beyond the words of the prompt. Not to mention, the cultural grand larceny involved in creating AI art tools leaves a bad taste in most honest people's mouths.
