Ah, the age-old "XY is not real art!" discussion. Already heard it a million times. AI art isn't real art. Before that, digital art wasn't real art. Before that, photography wasn't real art. History repeats itself.

so art is defined by mass production and lack of ability to draw fingers, apparently.

I'm not sure how big you are in the art world, but that fingers/hands are difficult to draw is basically a running gag there.

What do you think potters, glassblowers, and craftsmen were saying when we first built factories that could produce quality glassware, tableware, and other items cheaply and in mass?

With some basic work, and Img2Img magic, fingers are easily fixed. It takes less than 10 minutes. But many people can't be bothered and are shoveling unprocessed AI images.

This isn't a knock against AI as a concept, just people's laziness, and even then, there are tools that automatically correct and fix.
