Seems like you're talking about designers, not artists. Designers make products whose endgoal is money, artists make artworks whose endgoal is meaning. The intrinsic value of an artwork comes from human > human communication. AI is a tool.
- codingdave 5y agoThat is certainly one definition of art. There are others. The answer to "What is art?" changes depending on time and culture. FWIW, I have a degree in Fine Arts, have had my work in galleries, and my goal is neither money nor meaning, but just for people to give me some validation and say, "Hey, that's cool."

- throwthere 5y ago> Designers make products whose endgoal is money, artists make artworks whose endgoal is meaning. I don't think that's a useful classification or that those are even mutually exclusive. How would you group Michelangelo and his incredibly expensive commissioned works for instance?
- n8cpdx 5y ago> The intrinsic value of an artwork comes from human > human communication So you're saying art is a tool? Is art not shared not art?
- TheAceOfHearts 5y agoWhat does it mean for meaning to be the endgoal of art? I've spent the last two months making carvings and blockprinting them. Sometimes I try to come up with an idea or concept I want to convey. Other times I sit with a block and start carving without any sort of plan or idea for what will come out, just filling in the blank spaces until something emerges. Upon completion I can often come up with various interpretation of the abstract results, but a lot of the fun comes from hearing how other people interpret my work. A veritable Rorschach test for the soul.
