I look at these works of art created by artificial intelligence and I think: yes, it's beautiful, yes, it's good, but... What's the point? Where's the story, where's the work, if everything is so simple, then what's the point? It's no better than a store where you come and buy, although no, you come, take everything you need for free and leave. I don't see any value in it, it's just boring.

I'm also an artist and I can see some use for AI, but I don't use it to make any actual art. I use it to bolster up my weaker areas, which is basically all the admin stuff - marketing plans, budgets, setting prices, all the paperwork crap essentially. Which then frees me up to spend more time doing actual creative things.

Cool I’m the reverse. I do admin shit, and generate the art. Haha

That's a good use for it.
