Well, I suppose at the most basic level it is, but I don't feel like all AI generated art is in that category. I make 3d animations using a few different AI tools. Here's an example from one of my TikTok accounts: Stereoscopic Cyberpunk AICatgirl.

I spend about 4 hours on each 1 minute animation. I really do feel that that time and effort involved elevates the result above "found" art. And I'm sure there are far better AI artists out there than me.

Oh yeah, no doubt I would consider that "art" (very nice, too! :)). I think there may be a line in the amount of effort it takes. The AI art I'm talking about is the stuff that's done in a few seconds from a single prompt. But I understand that some artists are going through tons of iterations before getting to a 'look' that they want.

I can kind of make myself believe in it more if I think of it through the lens of fashion. To be fashionable, to express yourself through clothing, doesn't require you to make the clothes yourself. What we put together, what we "create" is the outfit, the ensemble.

With the definition of artist: a person skilled at a particular task or occupation. They would actually be artists
