14 days agoYour interpretation of what is art is based on the perspective of the viewer. The article seems to be defining it more in the context of the creating and the intentions/choices behind the creation. Both are valid.
If AI generated images are art, then a naturally occurring crystal cave that elicits a sense of awe is also art. Maybe that’s true, I just think it has more to do with how you define art than some objective reality of what is ‘art’.
I largely agree. Whether or not something “is art” is almost entirely subjective. But I can literally tell an LMM to “make an art” without any actual direction and it will make something. Does that make it less a work of art? It kind of feels like it to me. But if I ask that 50 times and then pick the one I like best, does that change it’s artistic ‘value’? I can collect a pile of rocks I think look cool and the collection could certainly be considered artistic, and collages are a thing, so there is certainly a lot of gray area there.
I like to think of art as more an activity that an object. If I experience it and it makes me feel things, it is art. If I create something based on my internal feelings, it is art. Maybe art is just the feelings we generate along the way?
