Why isnt copying creative? Isn't it fairly well understood that a lot of creativity is derivative anyway? That in the act of being artistic, artists borrow and are influenced by other works?
People who use computers are giving the computer instructions. All people who use computers are software developers.
For so many in tech, not understanding art had little consequence beyond shitty power points. Now it's going to waste a lot of money on worthless art products.
Agreed. It's an impressive and practiced talent.

Art comes from another place.
