Art is for the sake of humans producing said art. I don't give a flying f*ck about "art" (it's not art) generated by a neural net using statistical patterns.
Your "logic" for making AI art illegal is basically "don't like it". Your personal and subjective opinion is that it's not art by definition.. This is like refusing to eat artificially grown meat because you have some strange idea about what food "should" be. Even if the meat was made MORE delicious you would still claim it wasn't food and turn it away. There's no logical consistency to your position, it's purely reactionary.
All this boils down to a simple fact that egos like to think of themselves (and of artistic interaction) much more than there actually is.
I remember a story when a literature teacher insisted on a definite symbolism of some minor detail in a novel. People contacted the author about it and he said no, there is nothing behind it. It was just a filler without any second thought. Makes you think how much symbolism is far-fetched in classics, where you cannot simply email an author.
What is not logically consistent is to claim that a black box utilizing statistical relationships between pixels in a giant dataset is an "artist" and that its products create "value".
The compiler is not a programmer, AI can never be an artist.
Step 1: Tweak settings and type text
Step 2: Look at the result
Step 3: If you like the result, go to step 4, otherwise go back to step 1.
Step 4: Save and share the result
Feels like art to me. Ultimately it's still a human using a tool to create art. For me AI art is just the name of the art style.
