Thought art friends and appreciators might value these words from students: My day job is as an art educator, a couple middle grade (beginner not particularly interested in art) students asked me about AI art. So, I asked them their thoughts first, and they said two things:

They said, “I can tell if it’s AI art and AI video, and I immediately don’t care about it”, to which another student responded: “Why should I care about it? Nobody cared to put any time into it, there’s something special about stuff someone actually made, you know what I mean?”.
