The physical ability to create a piece is merely one aspect of artistic production. Another important skill is the capacity for creative thought; it can be viewed as a sort of art in and of itself. So it's not a crazy idea in my opinion.

I can tell we won’t see eye to eye on this so I’m not trying to convince you or anything.

Creative thought is something essentially every human in the world has to some capacity, so sure everyone is an artist. It doesn’t make them an artist to the degree we are talking about though. I feel like the bare minimum required is being able to physically convey your idea yourself, no matter how good it bad it may be.

Asking an AI to make you something, that has been trained on millions of actual artists good images, doesn’t make you an artist in my opinion.
