Is AI Art Really Art?

Traditionally, art has been a way for humans to express their feelings, experiences, and creativity. Whether it’s painting, sculpture, or music, the human touch has always been an essential part of art. However, AI technologies like ChatGPT and DALL-E 3 are challenging this idea by creating art through mathematical algorithms and machine learning.

To illustrate this point I want to share an example.

When I visited the Guggenheim Museum in New York, I saw an exhibition by the artist Sarah Sze. The Guggenheim’s unique spiral design, with its continuous walkways and no stairs, provided a fantastic setting for her work. Sarah Sze used this space creatively, not only by displaying paintings but also by using projectors to cast images onto the walls and ceilings.

This multi-dimensional experience showed how physical space and artistic vision can come together to create something truly amazing.

ChatGPT art as well as all AI-generated art can be seen as an extension of the artist’s creativity. When artists use AI tools, they are not just letting a machine do the work; they are working together with technology to explore new creative possibilities.

Therefore, ChatGPT art and AI art can indeed be considered real art, especially when it helps to enhance and expand human creativity.

How to Use ChatGPT to Make Art

Coming Up with New Ideas

Artists can talk to ChatGPT to get new ideas. If you tell it what you’re thinking about, it can help you think of more or find new ways to look at your work. This is great when you’re stuck or want something fresh.

Building Stories

If you’re making art that tells a story, like comics or animations, AI can be super helpful. It can help you make up stories, invent characters, or even come up with things they can say. This makes your story richer and more interesting.

Talking About Your Art

Sometimes it’s hard to explain your art to others. ChatGPT can help you write about what you make, like for an art show or a website. You just need to tell it about your art, and it can help you write something that sounds good and tells people what you want them to know.

Working Together with Other Artists

ChatGPT can help when you’re working with other artists, too. It can give ideas that mix everyone’s styles or help come up with new things you can all work on. This makes working together easier and more fun.

Using ChatGPT can make making art more exciting and can help you do things you might not have thought of before.
