#AIArt

AI-generated art is where the technical and the aesthetic collide most visibly, and these posts watch that collision up close. I am less interested in settling whether a diffusion model "really" creates than in tracking what happens when the cost of producing a credible image drops to near zero. That shift touches illustrators, stock photographers, game studios, and anyone who makes a living from visual culture, and it raises old questions about authorship in newly urgent forms. The pieces here cover prompt craft as a genuine skill, the uncanny aesthetics of model output, the labor politics of training sets scraped without consent, and the strange beauty that occasionally emerges when a model misreads its own latent space. Art has always absorbed new tools; the question is who benefits this time.
