Maybe not the time for a joke about the AI of the beholder.
Artists rarely agree on much but, at the moment, a big chunk of them are angry about AI art. Not necessarily the concept, nor even its almost inevitable commercial use, but at the way it has suddenly appeared and flooded the internet's various artistic watering holes. The biggest by far is ArtStation, owned by Epic Games, which is a site where artists share pictures, create a portfolio, and network with other artists.
There are other images but this is the one that artists decided en masse to adopt, with so many posting the image that it threatened to take over the ArtStation homepage entirely. As things stand it remains prevalent on the homepage but at one point things looked like this:"ArtStation’s content guidelines do not prohibit the use of AI tools in the process of creating artwork that is shared with the community,".
This seems somewhat reasonable: the question of how AI art is going to fit into the art world's future is surely more complex than"let's ban it" and, at the same time, it seems reasonable to insist on firm and up-front delineations between what humans create and what software produces. However, ArtStation itself then put its foot right in itThe replies to that certainly suggest ArtStation got something wrong, and the FAQ has infuriated some users.
