Firstly, art and creativity are turning into a kind of Lego constructor with minimal value, and secondly, it is becoming more and more difficult to trust the news, because AI makes better and better deepfakes; Thirdly, people, for example, I have a friend on the Internet, but due to the frequent use of AI, he has become quite apathetic, I try to support him and somehow help him, as I did before, but more and more often he just ignores me and brushes me off with a simple thank you or bye, and if we communicate, then not for long, since he does not listen to me, but usually he shows me masterpieces or memes that he has generated with the help of AI, calling it real art, honestly, it is more and more unpleasant for me to communicate with him.

I hope I explained clearly, sorry, the exact explanations are not about me.

Any HUMAN being using learned skill to capture a photo is art. Because art is something produced by a mind that strives to create it.

AI is not art because AI can’t comprehend art.

A camera can't comprehend art either - it's just a tool a human uses to create it. AI doesn't generate anything on its own either; it needs a human to operate it too. The camera isn't the artist, Photoshop isn't, a canvas and brush aren't, Illustrator isn't. They're just tools. The artist is the human behind them.
