not how I was putting it...

an artisan is a skilled craftsman; AI has no skill it is simply a sequence of computations that arrive at a result depending on what levers were pressed (questions asked); no different to a computer, a 'machine'...

what you call the questioner is the artisan, AI is a tool they can use to help produce a result, but it cannot produce art itself anymore than a computer can draw

what we are seeing here is a means to produce a result without drawing it - chris mentioned making music without playing an instrument, yes, but that does not mean there are no longer any musicians...

It's clipart folks; it's an OCC on the web; but it's not art with a capital A
