I’m going to be a broken record here: both of the words “artificial” and “intelligent are hellaciously difficult to define, put them together and you’ve got a real epistemological quantum on your hands.

What we’re actually always talking about is “applied computational statistics”, otherwise known as ML.

And if an artist wants to sample from the distribution of beautiful images and painting and photographs as a source of inspiration, why not? We do it in other fields.

But using a computer to sample from that same distribution and adding nothing will be rightly rewarded by nothing.
