When I go to museum I don't merely admire the painting itself, or any specific strokes or colour palette. I think this applies to most humans and something that the AI crowd does not understand.

I admire the mind of the person that created this art piece, when I see a dot or a stroke I am wondering about the intelligence and reasoning of the author. When I see more than one painting I am wondering about the history of their self-development, analysing how much they've improved as a human from the first to the last art piece they've produced. I am also analysing how their understanding of the world has changed over time.

You can't do this with AI generated slop, hence why I don't care about anything generated by AI. The only time when I might give any merit to AI generated stuff is when someone clearly put more effort into the result than simply prompting AI to generate it. Maybe they've combined output of multiple models or used editing software to enhance it, or maybe the idea itself was very creative. Either way, there always has to be human mind behind anything that can be considered an *art* because ultimately, it's the human mind that I am admiring, not the artwork.
