The bananamana gets credit for doing the Art Museum equivalent of a shitpost. I think everyone understands this intuitively.
The AI guy writes prompts. Maybe they do some touch-up after. But, this leaves a lot on the table: where is the museum curator filling in the little birds in the sky? Or the pedestrian across the street who makes it into some generateds and not others? Or the row of planets that, in video, turns into a guitar that then turns into a gas cloud that then turns into a trumpet-planet-thing that then dissolves into nothing? They live in the machine. A machine that doesn’t know what a pedestrian is, that doesn’t know what a trumpet is—It’s just visual noise. It may as well be TV static. It means nothing.
Why does the AI idea-guy think that their work should be interesting to anyone when it is 90% colorful jingle keys for me, the dribbling baby, to look at while observing their “concept”: Cthulhu dressed up as a police officer.
Did you like that? Cthulhu as a police officer? That’s my art. Type that into a generator and appreciate it for me.
