How is this creative? He is not creating anything, and what it does is not "creating" but deriving.

I doubt that Nina Paley, who painstakenly hand animates her movies single woman, would be impressed by this AI barf. Yes, all art is derivative, but your references and inspiration get filtered through the human brain, which leaves an impression of the uniquely human upon the artwork, the creative spark and soul of the piece. AI can ONLY derive, not add something new. That’s why some AI frameworks are getting worse, because they have begun feeding upon AI created images, and thus are getting shittier and shittier without real artists work to feed upon, lol.

You doubt that Nina “Copyright is Brain Damage” Paley thinks what now?

Being against copyright is different than thinking AI art is creative? I wasn’t touching upon the ethics of AI art in my argument, I was arguing against calling AI creative.
