Off topic, but...
"AI art" isn't a thing anymore than "motorsport" is: it's not sport when you're not the motor.
Okay fuck ai "art" but why you gotta do motorsport dirty, that shit requires skill, physical fitness, shitloads of practice, and raw talent
Oh, no question. It takes skills to drive a car well - particularly a race car. It probably requires you to be fit too. But you're not doing the work: the car does.
I choose to draw the line of "sport" at physical performance, because if you start including fine motor skills and intelligence, then you have to include poker-playing, model-making and mathematics and then it becomes ridiculous. And I say that as a semi-professional pool player: whatever I'm doing when I'm shooting pool, it sure ain't sport, despite my having to train and keep fit.
Similarly, I choose to draw the line of "art" as you doing the art. Asking an AI to come up with a picture, however skillful the prompt, clearly isn't you making the art.
That's my take. Feel free to disagree ๐
I think saying "it takes skill" and "probably requires you to be fit" are contradictory to your point. I would also argue that billiards is technically a sport. Golf is technically a sport.
