Will AI Replace the Artist?
If tomorrow's society becomes one chock full o' AI-made drivel, culture shall respond in kind. It can't do anything but. So it has always been and so it shall always be.
Once videos and movies start to look like glossy, melting clay, maybe artists will respond by making stuff that's robotic. Or poorly made on purpose. If the machines start acting m... See more

First comes the awe: can you believe this? Look at this video of a man running backwards on a treadmill!
Then, the panic: given art's decidedly specific turn to "man in sweats running backwards on treadmill" motifs, will art as we know it become obsolete?
Absolutely not.
Culture, or Art, is the response to society. The deviation.

amazing piece on whether AI will replace the artist. the answer is no, of course not. why? because culture is smarter than we are.
You could see AI making an exact replica of The Room and it having none of the value, because it wasn't made by someone. Because there was no human-led deviation between what was attempted and what was made. That deviation, in art and in life, is what makes us so damn human.

I actually think this is pro-AI, in that it ringfences it. AI can make fun sounds, but it can’t create real stories.
Art will in fact thrive upon the mess that AI wreaks upon the masses. Action to reaction to commodification of said reaction. Toss in some enshittification and babe, there's really nothing better you could do for Art.
