If I were to draw a fantasy bedroom there’s a pretty good chance some parts of the room would be squiggly doodles meant to be more interpreted by the viewers imagination rather than a specific object I had in mind.

(I’m also Not an illustrator)

>but I can tell you what every single object is supposed to be, why I thought it belonged in a fantasy-world bedroom, and why I put it in its particular spot in that bedroom.

I mean post ad hoc the machine could do that too. In fact, that is the only way your brain can explain anything.

Huh? Are you saying human artists don't consider composition while creating their works?

Not always, not every time.

I've created music and art in a visual medium and there's a lot of post hoc justification that your brain likes to present

sure, and AI could draw a better picture without those things, and most people would prefer the better illustration to the conceptually flawless composition
