best to say this in the nicest way I possible

I’m trying my best to say this in the nicest way I possibly can, so bare with me. I’m just going to say an unfortunate but annoying fact about AI so get ready for it… even though AI can generate aesthetically pleasing images, this is not art. Real art is something made by a human with a soul, something made with passion, love, care and dedication; which is something the AI is physically incapable of replicating because the AI has no soul, therefor no creativity. These things are soulless, they aren’t crafted out of love, they have no passion put into them because they’re made out of outside sources which the AI merges to create a new image in hopes of satisfying the consumer. The AI cannot come up its own creations because it’s dependent on the hard work of humans in order to create a variant of it; so it’s just imitation. I want to tell you something… I and many other artists in the world are scared. We’re genuinely afraid of this AI because of its potential of replacing our jobs and eventually making us homeless. We need this job, not only to stay financially stable but also because drawing is what we do best. We need to keep creating. We need to keep improving. We need to keep moving forward. We need to learn from our mistakes. We’re creative, talented people with a passion and we don’t want machines to take that opportunity away from us. We don’t want machines to take the joy of creating away from us. We don’t want machines to replace us because we need to keep creating. Art is not just pretty pictures. Art is not just a form of expression. Art is not just a form of communication. Art is a culture.
