    this is why i tend to think about AI images like a camera, it’s not creative but it can make things that look nice, and then we can take inspiration to make something creative just like when we walk outside and look at the per definion uncreative physical landscape.

      Cameras aren’t creative?.. Guess we need to tell all the photographers and filmmakers out there…

        Cameras are just tools, jusr like brushes. They are not creative, the artists you mentioned are.

        yeah, it’s the person using the camera who is creative.

        AI is a camera without a user, thus incapable of creativity just the same as a mountain isn’t creative.

          We’re in sync then, your initial comment made it sound like you thought any camera work was not creative by default. As I said to the other guy I should’ve used a different phrasing to clear out the confusion around tool/artist.
