    I was awful at drawing and painting and now I’m not. I’ve walked that path, and I’m glad I spend the time learning those skills. I much prefer creating whatever I want to as opposed to pecking a word at a time, trying to coax something vaguely like it from an algorithm. That seems sad to me.

      Prompting an AI to make something cohesive in art or music is a skill in itself. In the future it will be about who can prompt better. AI is taking the hand eye coordination out of these arts, and making it all about who can be more creative.

      Think of all the people who can’t physically draw or paint due to disability. Now they can create these kind of arts with only their thoughts. It opens so many doors for people.

      You can’t stop progress, but you shouldn’t be sad about it. There will always be a place for non AI art. It’s just that the people who embrace the technology are going to have insane output compared to traditional artists.
