Dall E suffers from 'regression to the mean'. Because it uses existing images, what it makes never seems very much different from what we've seen before. It's kind of an average of previous works (known to Dall E).
Artists are supposed to create something new. By composition or invention or whatever. Dall E makes a collage of images. Even it's composition seems average.
So sure call what Dall E makes, art. At best its a dull, average artist creating derivative images.
- the8472 4y agoModels can produce out-of-distribution results if you push them. The results won't necessarily be good, but describing it as an average, suggesting that it'll always be inside the some tight hull of the training set is misleading. Also note that averages can actually be highly unusual results if you're working with N-modal data, if you have a training set of horses and unicorns then you can get unusually short horns or other weirdness like horn-looking hair decorations. Just look at the avocado chair or dogball.
