A lot of people are confused and/or behave defensive and hallucinate copyright issues(which is real, but IMO not the reason why artistic or creative AI contents aren't accepted).
It's just not good enough. AI art generators aren't used in porn industry much. That should tell enough about quality and value of those. Bad VHS tapes were worse than YouTube 144p, and still totally fine for that industry. We're almost as far away from viability of AI art as we are from reliable self driving cars.
AI code generation is simply good enough. It might spit out GPL or Classified codes, but a lot of code just works. So they're widely accepted. AI translations and text interpretations are good enough too. READMEs are okay but barely. People are quick to point out Claude isms and reach for dislikes. "That's not just a double standard - it is a concrete indication that code and text are not the same" or whatever.

- devmor 2mo agoHave you driven around them? Waymos have caused me more near misses in the last month than I can recall in a year of driving in Atlanta.
- goosejuice 2mo agoI agree art lags text, but it's not that it isn't good enough, it's that it isn't controllable and it lacks expression that comes from an innately human thing. Self driving cars are pretty fucking good, that's not doing the work you think it's doing.
- numpad0 2mo agoI'd argue it's not even that. AI generated data all has malocious/hostile undertones that affect sanity of both users and viewers. The situation appears to be getting better especially in Chinese open weight models, but it hasn't reached the point where the resultant data neutrally compare against human sanitized data("art").
- goosejuice 2mo agoPersonally I think most modern art museums have plenty of sanity threatening material :)
- OroPla 2mo agoAI art is kinda like CGI. If you can tell, it usually means that it's bad. If you can't it doesn't matter.
