In photography, the photographer makes choices using lenses, lighting, framing and so on to make choices about how the image is created.
With Photoshop, the digital artist uses the tools to create and manipulate the image, making choices about how the image is created.
With AI, the prompter tells the computer what they want and no choices are made. The computer generates things with an algorithm and that’s it. The prompter doesn’t choose anything, they just make another prompt.
So yeah, prompters will never be artists, and I have more respect for a kid doodling in the dirt with a stick because they at least are making choices and making something.
It’s not gatekeeping, you’re just simply not making art, and no, you can’t sit with us.
