I have a pretty wide definition of art, so I hesitate to say it can't be art flippantly. I do think that for something to be art it must contain the voice of the artist, though, and for many AI generations I don't think you can see that voice, even if a lot of work went into creating it. Maybe that will change as the tools become more sophisticated and easier to get what you want out of them.

I agree but I don't think that has to do with AI necessarily. There are people who create images without soul, no matter the medium and tools used.
I think that people who make soulless art are just drawn to AI generators because it allows them to make something aesthetically passable without hours and years of tedious practice (which they otherwise wouldn't be willing to do since they obviously have no care for the art).
