Why is it not OC? Firstly, I created the base image. Second, the coding is open source. Third, no matter how hard anyone tries they will never be able to reproduce this image utilizing ai generators. Most important of all, I have never referred to myself as an artist, nor do I believe people who fuck around with ai image generators to be artists. It is foolish for people who play with these tools to consider themselves as such. Either way, I use OC in the most basic of contexts because I simply do not care about the semantics of the art world, because I'm not an artist.

Not fishing for downvotes, I just find it interesting seeing people shook by a pretty run of the mill AI image. There's some comments in here that are so emotional, it makes me feel like maybe they believe AI is going to end their dreams of being a painter or graphic designer. Interesting. Debating legitimacy of art is also interesting. I would say thinking you or I can decide what is legitimate art, what is inspiring, is a lot more dangerous thinking than someone enjoying looking at a computer program's little fake skull sculpture. But I guess I'm an idiot so it doesn't matter what I think.
