How I taught an AI to think like a painter

This reminds us that even though AI is a tool that can produce good work, it still takes a lot of effort with it to produce 'good' work.

We will see the same with writing: AI tools and methodologies that become powerful creative writing assistants - but these too will require much work and human inspiration to create truly 'good' work. (Perhaps these already exist?).

From one perspective this is an exciting future, but presumably this also means that AI will continue to improve until such time that it can produce good work without human intervention, and for me that's not so exciting: interesting perhaps, but soulless.
