As someone who's been making art with code for a long time, I'm under the impression that "generative", in the context of computers and art, has had another change of meaning recently.

"Making generative art" now seems synonymous to "giving a prompt to a black-box model created by a large corporation". Maybe Genuary is better described as "algorithmic art"? At the very least, you have to be aware that a wall of misunderstanding has appeared between people using different definitions. Maybe this is invisible to people inside a community, but this wall has appeared around the community and it's probably not helping.
