it's funny that some people think programming has a human element that can't be replaced but art doesn't.

Art doesn't have to fulfill a practical purpose nor does it usually have security vulnerabilities. Not taking a position on the substance, but these are two major differences between the two.

Art fulfills many practical purposes. You live in an abode designed by architects, presumably painted and furnished with many objects d'art such as, a couch, a wardrobe, ceiling fixtures, a bathtub; also presumably festooned with art on the walls; you cook and eat food in designed cookware, crockery and cutlery, and that food is frequently more than pure sustenance; and, presumably you spend a fair amount of time consuming media such as television, film, literature, music, comedy, dance, or even porn.

Yeah but what about those 18 toed porn girls with stumpy legs?
