AI art not as good as the masters?

If your argument against AI art is "it's not as good as the masters," you are fighting a losing battle. The tide of AI competence is rising, and while there are still islands of human supremacy, they are shrinking fast.

The thing I can't get over generative art is that the number of variations it creates is infinite. The attached images are two memetically identical sets -- that is, the same prompt was used to create them -- individuals and couples. Given a model, a seed number, and the prompt, the model will render an identical result every time, but the number of seeds is infinite.

What does it say about the value of individual variations when the possibility space is infinite? The value of the work shifts from solely the end product, to being split 3-ways between the model, the prompt, and the judgment used to pick a particular seed to share with you. Negotiating the value allocation between these three elements will be a major point of cultural struggle in the coming decades.
