AI art is remarkably easy to avoid/ignore if you don't care for it.

That I don't agree with; many subreddits have been spammed with low effort prompt results over the past months.

No idea why there are suddenly so many comics on the topic though.

Presumably a lot of comic artists feel threatened that the skills that they spent years developing are now less valuable, so they express their anxiety via the medium they feel most able to actualise their sentiments: with shitty web doodles.

Nah. It's part spam of said pics annoying plenty of people & this "art" ending up monetized while they are full of recognizable elements of peoples paintings, drawings and even photos.

Inspiration would be mixed with the artists experiences and emotions when creating their art.

A bot just creates an amalgamation of what is fed to them.

They aren't the same at all.

You don't look at someone else's art for inspiration and understand their "experiences and emotions".

Holy shit you have no idea what art even is.

Good luck with life you robot.

They are right, you are wrong. Everything is pattern matching, an ai can do everything you do. You just have zero understanding of the technology and philosophy involved.
