It’s a lot like commissioning something from an artist. You have to describe what you want, with the style, details and mood you want to see, then maybe go back and forth a few times until it’s just right. Doing that well is a skill, so are things like art direction. But replacing the humans executing on the direction with a machine doesn’t suddenly make the directing human an artist.
AI-generated art is an incredible tool for art design. I used to spend countless hours sifting through Google images, trying to piece together mood boards or find references for very specific concepts. Now, with AI, I can quickly generate visuals that capture the exact mood, style, or design I’m aiming for, saving both time and effort.
However, I view AI art as a starting point, not the final product. Once I’ve developed a clear visual direction, I hand these concepts over to a skilled artist to bring the idea to life with depth, creativity, and a human touch that AI simply can’t replicate. AI streamlines the creative process, but it doesn’t replace the artistry and nuance that only human creators can deliver.
Can confirm. I mock subway for calling their employees “artists”.
Also, if they can’t meet the legal Irish definition of bread, then they certainly shouldn’t be calling the whole thing a sandwich. That “ham” wasn’t sliced, it was extruded into that shape.
They work to create an appealing looking and tasting sandwich and make a bit of a show out of the process. It might not be super impressive or extraordinary, but I suppose it can be considered somewhat of an art
Being good at prompting AI to generate art is like being good at using a search engine to find a specific picture.

You’re being facetious but searching is a skill too. A simple skill but still a skill.
Nobody said it wasn’t a skill, just that it isn’t the same thing as creating art. You know, the thing that artists do.
So you’re just bothered by the use of the term “artist” to describe it?
Subway calls their employees “sandwich artists”, but I don’t see anyone freaking out about how those people aren’t really creating art.
I’m not bothered, just pointing out that you are entirely missing the point of the meme.
Everyone mocks Subway for calling their employees ‘artists’.
