Art is self-expression. Not about being good at it.
“Human eyes are black and mouths are red.”
Who decided that when you express them in art?
For example, if the artist is at the peak of joy or happiness, his world will appear to shine with various colors. Or it may appear in a different shape than it actually is.
You could say it’s expressing what you see with your mind’s eye. What you draw can change depending on your state of mind. What and how people draw and express is fundamentally free.
Art is self-expression.
It is said that artistic activities, which express a worldview based on one’s own sensibility by drawing/creating, activate the brain.
I hope that children who will lead the future will continue to do creative activities like this.
When it comes to drawing the same picture multiple times like photographs, no one can match a robot.
There are no limits to art
As AI becomes more widespread, many people know that it can create high-quality art in an instant.
However, art created by AI is made by complexly combining the vast amounts of information stored in the AI. In other words, it is made from what already exists.
On the other hand, art created by humans is created by expressing the complex emotions that only humans have, either as they are or by combining them with information.
It is a genuine work of art that can never be created twice.
Furthermore, the fact that only humans can sense it makes us feel the reality that AI cannot replace all artists.
Now that we live in an age where we coexist with AI, it’s important to hone your ability to express yourself and create things that don’t exist!!
