The growing phenomenon of so-called A.I. art programs like DALL-E 2, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion have sparked discussion about the potential of these technologies and the implications for artists This video essay addresses that phenomenon, why A.I. art is not actually art, and contextualizes the threat the tech poses to art as both creative endeavor and as industry. I also talk a lot about Robert Altman, and especially The Player.
