Neat to see this particular tech again. I think it's cool for art's sake. Something someone can use as they paint, so the final result is all their own brush strokes.
That's like calling a paint by numbers art worthy of hanging in a museum. It just let's someone look like they have talent while possessing nothing of the sort.
I think it's closer to tracing. If the end result of following an AI is capped by being somewhat flawed or the artist not learning certain skills, is that a bad thing? I see it as a limitation instead of a negative. Copying AI art can only get someone so far. The best results will come from the artist making their own decisions.
Who is copying AI art? They are using "AI" to create "art". They are drawing less than primitive shapes, and the AI is turning it into something. The funny thing is, the video is so short and clipped it's farcical. This takes "Draw a circle, draw the rest of the fucking owl" to an entirely different level.
Man it's just fun to make paintings. I don't need AI everywhere, but since it's impossible to draw stuff with precision using a mouse, this makes sense. Also when you want detailed control over AI images, this might be a lot easier than using text prompts.
