I could give you the same reply I gave OP. If you determine what is art based on the process of its creation, and not solely on the result, then you deny AI the capability to create art. I personally don't need to know anything about the circumstances of the creation of art piece to think of it as art (or sometimes not). If the author relies on this (for his work to be judged as art), he should have put it into the work itself.

Aren't we just quibbling over definitions? "If you determine what is art based on the process of its creation, and not solely on the result, then you deny AI the capability to create art." OK and?

> then you deny AI the capability to create art. Yes. That's what is whole thing is about - AI cannot create art because it lacks a human component. A tighter question would be can animals create art? I don't know the answer to that one.

  > Yes. That's what is whole thing is about - AI cannot create art because it lacks a human component. What I mean by "deny the capability to create art" is that you decided that whatever the AI might have created in the future, and without even looking at it, it's not art. It's sort of an extreme position, I think.
