AI "art" isn't actually art; it's mass-produced slop that undermines the genuine creativity of artists who pour their heart and soul into their work. The term "AI art" suggests a level of creativity and inspiration that these computer-generated images do not possess. Instead, what we have are pictures created by algorithms, processed through software, without the human touch that defines true art.

By labeling these outputs as "AI art," we are diminishing the work of real artists who spend years honing their craft and developing unique styles. The term misleads the public into believing that machines can create art, when in reality, they merely follow code to produce soulless images. Art should evoke emotion, convey deep meaning, and connect with people on a personal level. Machines simply cannot replicate this.

The term "Computer Rendered Artificial Pictures" more accurately describes what these outputs are: computer-generated images that lack the essence of true artistry. This change in terminology is crucial for preserving the integrity of the art world and ensuring that real artists receive the recognition they deserve.

Join us in urging art communities, galleries, and institutions to adopt this new terminology. By doing so, we protect the value of human creativity and maintain the distinction between genuine art and computer-generated images.
