New coffee cups!
What’s on my mind: Is AI-generated imagery doing to art, what Elon Musk is doing to Twitter?

If I then also get the ideas for pictures from an AI, I could still call myself an "artist", after all I switched on the computer and started the program.New coffee cups!

You’re an artist even if you just think about switching on the computer, but don’t actually do it. It’s Conceptual!

Well, it IS a business, for many people. So in that sense, yes.

Good! I needed a new coffee cup for at work. I wonder what colleagues will gossip now about me!

See, that's why I'll never get an idea like that. Unfortunately, I have no talent for drawing decent pictures by hand and I admire anyone who can do it. All I can do is improve photos and maybe add some captions.You’re an artist even if you just think about switching on the computer, but don’t actually do it. It’s Conceptual!

This comment, from an AI-user on DeviantArt (sorry but they don’t get to be called “artists”), made me laugh my ass off:
Protein artists cry. Children leave the site.
You are not needed here. If you can't draw better than neural networks, your work is not needed.
If you want to stay in business, learn how to use neural networks, edit hands, generate ideas and plots, and incorporate the work of a neural network into your art.
Then success awaits you. Otherwise oblivion.
“Protein artist “, that’s just a fascinating insult on so many levels!
It’s like robots calling humans “meat-sacks” or something. Or it would be, if it came from a robot, but presumably this comment was composed by a human. I love the “you are not needed here”.. it’s too funny 
By the way, this user uploaded over 150 images in their first day on DeviantArt. I shan’t say anything about their quality, but even the quantity isn’t impressive, when you consider how easy it is.

I don't consider that I've ever been an artist, or ever will be except maybe of the p1ss variety many years ago, so I don't feel as outraged as some about 'AI' artists spouting off. Here's my observation....... Think seven dwarfs.
'A-I, A-I, O. It's off to work I go.
I've no brush and no paint,
That's far too quaint.
It's A-I. It's A-I A-I O.
A-I, A-I, O. I'm going to make some dough.
No talent, that's fine,
Your cash'll be mine.
It's A-I. It's A-I A-I O.
A-I, A-I, O. Pay me in crypto.
Bitcoin is great,
It's dollars I hate.
It's A-I. It's A-I A-I O.
A-I, A-I O. That's a squillion images to show.
At a hundred each
My wealth's out of reach
It's A-I. It's A-I A-I O.
A-I, A-I, O. I'll upset @montycrusto.
My phony art
Is just the start.
It's A-I. It's A-I A-I O.
A-I, A-I, O. I'm putting on a show.
The Louvre or Tate
Will be just great.
It's A-I. It's A-I A-I O.
A-I, A-I, O. Shit! That's a very low blow.
Bitcoin has died,
My wealth is fried.
It's A-I. It's A-I A-I O.
A-I, A-I, O. Now @montycrusto can crow.
I can't afford a watt,
My computer's shot.
It's A-I. It's A-I A-I O.
A-I, A-I, O. It's off to work I go.
I've found a real trade,
As @montycrusto's maid.
It's A-I. It's A-I A-I O.
I think that's, more than enough verses. Time for coffee.

Now that would actually make me think of someone who creates gelatinous amorphoid sculptures from quivering goo (or something you might see being served for lunch in a Calvin & Hobbes comic)
