I love art and code, IMO is because Cursor is really good and AI art is not that good.

There isn't a good metaphor for the problem with AI art. I would say it is like some kind of chocolate cake that the first few bites seem like the best cake you have ever had and then progressive bites become more and more shit until you stop even considering eating it. Then at some point even the thought of the cake makes you want to puke.

I say this as someone who thought we reached the art singularity in December 2022. I have no philosophical or moral problem with AI art. It just kind of sucks.

Cursor/Sonnet on the other hand just blew my mind earlier today.

There are really good models for AI art, if people care. I think that AI is better at making an image from start to finish than making some software from start to finish.

And I use Claude 3.5 Sonnet myself.

AI art is an oxymoron. It will never give me chills or make me cry.
