Maybe you disagree, and that's fine, but y'know... people have different interests! Its not that i disagree that its an interesting question - i disagree that its relavent to the paper. It is not a question that the paper really attempts to answer or comment on. It feels unfair to claim the paper is doing art wrong, when its not trying to do "art", its trying to make the AI pick images that are slightly prettier to the average person and describing a process to optimize for that pattern. That's a far cry from doing high art in my mind. This is more like creating an autofocus feature to make "better" images. So if the criticism is that this isn't fine art, my response is basically, no duh.
