'My 5 year old could have painted that'.

Yeah but they didn't.

Art is about emotion. Text prompted AI generated images are the opposite of that.

A 5 year old could type in 'Beautiful oil painting style, girl with a pearl earring, high resolution.' , but who gives a shit?

What emotion and intention does that convey? Nobody looks at an AI image and feels the artist's joy or pain. It's completely superficial.
