No one believes that with regard to the generation of the art. A prompt is not creation. That's like saying speaking your order into the drive-in mic means you cooked your burger and fries.
That’s a good take. Very concise- well done and thanks!
I commissioned an artist to create character art for my and my wife's D&D characters. I gave her a 'prompt' of a very basic description and a bit of their vibe. She created the art all on her own. And it was awesome, money well spent and supporting human artists. I created nothing.
Damn, what a fantastic analogy.
So continuing the burger and fries analogy, this comes perilous close to saying the AI is the real cook/real artist and the prompter just orders the meal/commissions the art. I know you're not arguing this, but if I think too much, it gives sentient qualities to the AI creator. *shivers*
In this case the copyright page could tell the reader Cover design by ImagineAI who was told by John Smith (e.g.): "Draw me a humanized evil looking cat in suit and tie that stands in a well decorated office of a company executive."
This is such a perfect way to sun it up!!
It is commissioning art not creating it.
Bingo. Telling AI programmed by someone else to create an image isn’t drawing or graphic design or anything creative. It’s an Uber Eats order. And you get what you get.
Did Martin Nebelong create these images or not? youtu.be/wA4MnJUT6kY?...
