ai generated art didn't create itself. someone typed in text and uploaded an image that they wanted manipulated. Movie directors only give instructions to actors. They don't create the sets/costumes. They don't write the words. They only give instructions and they get awards for being artists.
That is a fundamentally incorrect interpretation of what a director does. Though, I see what you're trying to say with that exceedingly off-the-mark analogy. That just had to be said.
Ultimately, due to how subjective the idea of art is there's nothing I can say to convince you that this perspective is wrong. As long as people want something to be considered art, they will find a way to craft an interpretation that makes it work.
Just as I was able to take your meaning with your analogy and not dismiss it because it's so incorrect, I expect you and others to understand the meaning of art being "created." Instead you decided to leverage the broader concept of what is created in order to manipulate the idea to encompass generated images. I don't think this discussion could possibly turn out as anything but a frustrating and negative experience, so I will step away from it. Suffice it to say that we will simply always disagree on this subject.
Then explain where my analogy fails.
You can change my mind by explaining how a director is different than what I've seen in hundreds of behind the scenes commentaries and documentaries on movie creation. To be more specific, some directors are also writers, storyboarders or cinematographers. But those are additional jobs that not all directors do.
You need to explain why it is incorrect.
