It’s exactly what it is to me. It’s an unskilled effort for a barely mediocre result. If programming a robot to throw a football doesn’t make someone an athlete, than it’s not artistry to type a sentence.
It’s not subjective, there is more to the process than just writing prompts. Are 3d modelers unskilled because all they do is move a mouse and occasionally type on a keyboard? 2d digital artists are just moving around a fake pen on a plastic tablet. Programmers type words into a text file. You’re horribly oversimplifying. Of course someone could just do a basic prompt and post their raw gens, but that also happens all the time with sketches, story ideas, and just newer artists in general. There is a lot of pre and post processing that goes into making something worth looking at.
Sorry to upset you, but in my opinion- it’s not art. You can keep being bothered by this, or you can move on.
I’m allowed to have this opinion
I don’t care whether or not you call it art, but calling it ‘just throwing some text in a computer’ is just factually incorrect.

It’s my opinion, and I’m keeping it. No amount of whataboutism is going to change that- so just walk away from this.
It’s not an opinion you’re just wrong ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
No, it’s an opinion. You really should learn what opinions are, and how they work. Because considering AI is capable of making art is ALSO an opinion.
Do you also struggle with reading comprehension? That’s not what I was saying.
We’re done here. Have a good day.
