depends on the language model, the better ones often have broader datasets and don’t usually funnel toward a singular output
so AI uses patterns and probabilities to decide what to make but it doesn’t just copy stuff. it mixes things together in new ways like if it learned about one style and another subject it could combine them into something new it’s not just evaluating. it’s generating images by altering and combining ideas to make something new
personally, im okay with those who use AI for personal purposes, but i hate when they want to sell AI tasks like art and hate those artist who blame AI because in their mind they think AI will ruin their “job” (they usually do trash commisions for 10 dollars wowww)
AI will not replace human art, if you make a pretty good art and improve your personal brand you cant be replaced
