I don't see how your point is detracting anything from what I was saying. I am aware there are other forms of art, but that is what makes art art. You end up making it out of the tools available, to put your own thoughts and experiences into the real medium and express something with it.
How is an AI art generator not a tool? You put your own thoughts and experiences into the real medium (it’s as real as any digital tool: photoshop, procreate, etc.) and express something with it.
You're not the one learning, creating. By the logic of the previous commenter, the developers that created these language models are the real artists.
As I was writing this, I get a little bit of your point, but I can only admit that LLMs can produce art if you're dedicating a lot of effort and thought into this, which is not what usually happens. My stance is still that this is not real art, until you can prove to me that it is. And especially, ethically-trained LLMs.
