...except when a person is doing it, they're doing their own thing to it. They take an idea or two and filter it through their own lens and stylise it
Think about it like this - when you do data scraping, you're still interpreting the results. You're looking at the data and going 'ok from this I can draw X and Y conclusions based on this and that'. AI art is like if we removed you from the process - we just shoved all the data into a black box and it goes ding "X is Y". If you asked it why that's so, it wouldn't be able to tell you. You can't see how it works so you have no idea if it's reasoning makes scientific sense. It would not be admissible in a paper.
