Perhaps I'm an outlier, but generally I don't value art because of the story behind it. I love a Bach fugue not because he was suffering, content, had many children, or whatever else, but because it's an extraordinary composition. I would feel the same about AI generated art.

Perhaps I'm an outlier, but generally the value I derive from art is not from its backstory. I love a Bach fugue not because he was suffering, content, had many children, or whatever else, but because it's an extraordinary composition. I'd feel the same about AI generated art.
