- wizzwizz4 2y agoGreat artists steal, as in, make things their own. The computer programs can't extrapolate without producing artefact-dominated visual noise: they can only interpolate ("copy"). (Besides, you're affirming the consequent.)
- seanhunter 2y agoSee my comment above. People say that Picasso said that (because Steve Jobs used to quote it as from Picasso) but there's no evidence he said that. It seems it was actually TS Elliot originally and then that was "stolen" by Igor Stravinsky, who was unquestionably a great artist but was saying it about Anton von Webern. https://quoteinvestigator.com/2013/03/06/artists-steal/ https://quoteinvestigator.com/2013/03/06/artists-steal/
