#opinion, Monday Morning Chat: An “AI” Artist?

(Waiting for a beer in El Carmen, C.2021, All Rights Reserved)

Today I saw a report about an “artist” whose work is being sold online, as nft, at auctions and that has already made 300.000 US dollars.

But there is no such artist. The artist is AI! However the programmer and the human artist behind this fallacy talk about this artificial thing as if he was a real artist.

For me art remains strictly and absolutely within the realm of humans and only humans. No machine can make art. Just as no animal can make art.

We shouldn’t be fooled by these gimmicks or by their “creators” who tell us that their AI artist is advancing and developing his art.

In conclusion, we’ve many artists, human ones, as it should be. We need technology to advance health care and other industrial aspects, and not to meddle in the arts.

Cheers…

    What a thoughtful and compelling reflection! 🎨✨

    I really appreciate how you’ve articulated the essential human element of art — the emotion, consciousness, and lived experience that machines simply cannot replicate. Your perspective reminds us that art is more than technique or output; it’s a reflection of the human soul, imagination, and intent.

  3. Estoy totalmente de acuerdo. Hoy mismo publiqué un blog titulado «Vivir en el mundo virtual». No mencioné la pintura, pero debería haberlo hecho.

  4. Well, I will reaffirm the other comments about how cogent your post was. No robot is going to replicate the sensitivity and insight you integrate into the world of art, poetry and life each time you do a blog post.

    1. Thank you! AI is and must remain a tool but not an end, at least not for the arts.

  5. AI may simulate brushstrokes, but not the heartbeat behind them. True art breathes intention and imperfection—both born of being human. Technology can assist creation, but only humanity can endow it with soul.
