Yes but I doubt they’ll have much value since you are not the only one that can type a text prompt.

There is already tons of selling of ai generated illustrations on deviantart. My whole front page is full of ai artists selling their “adoptables” they generate 30 a day of, selling requests, patreon, etc.

Yes. You can, I do, and it works. Make sure to read the terms of use for whichever generator platform/tech you use, but most explicitly allow for this.

The murkiness around copyright status is not a prohibition on selling AI art. Even if clear guidelines are established stating that works made with AI aren't covered by copyright, that doesn't prevent you from using AI and selling the results. It just means a company with more money can copy your work and sell it themselves too, even if they cut you out of your own market. For that reason, large companies won't pay to produce art they can't own the rights to. But unless you're independently wealthy, you're probably not paying to enforce your copyights even if you own them.

Some people will recommend lying about how you make the art, because the internet feels so hostile towards AI art. You don't need to do this, and probably shouldn't. AI art is cool enough on its own, and it's scummy to lie about what you're selling. But don't worry, in practice lots of people are excited by AI art and happy to buy a piece that impresses them, even when they know exactly what they are seeing.

Edit: All of the above is assuming you aren't actively infringing on someone's IP with your AI art. A generated image of Mickey Mouse fucking Batman is going to piss off two different large companies, and they'll have the right to make you get rid of it.

I guess you could sell them now..But the value of AI art will rapidly decrease at it gets easier to use things like stable diffusion or midjourney. There is very little skill in writing prompts, so if someone is willing to buy AI art, if they find any means to make it themselves they will just do that instead

hopefully you share the profits with the ai. doing all the hard work while you reap the benefit’s

You aren't infringing anyone's copyright, but you technically don't have a copyright for them either. You can sell them but if you are worried, just don't mention they are ai.

Is it POSSIBLE? Absolutely, there's nothing stopping you from wide format printing a bunch of images and hawking them at the local flea market.

Is there anything stopping you on the internet? Lots of places keep putting up 'no AI allowed' rules. These rules somewhat-stop you from doing AI-related business on their sites. A lot of these computer art sites don't deal in physical fine art paintings either, they're just the Wacom Tablet art outlet.

AI artists will have their own outlets in the near future, and people who are highly skilled in writing prompts will be able make some money prompting stuff on command for the clueless majority. People who are good at processing AI output in various ways will have an even larger market, "take this image collection you make and put it into my XYZABC123 for me."
