The Case For AI Generative Art

An interesting new medium has emerged in the last several years referred to as AI Generative Art or simply AI Art. Of course generative art is not a new concept and has been around since the 1960's, but with the rise and popularity of NFTs in the art world and the improvements of accessible AI technology, a new trend of AI generated artwork is becoming increasingly popular. AI Art is generated in several different ways, one is considered pure AI, output through the use of text prompts or graphical inputs without any post-production work. This may include tweaking the text prompts or the use of UI sliders to fine-tune the output. UI interface tools such as Artbreader, DeepAI, NightCafe, and WOMBO Dream can be used to create AI art, or you can choose to use code, such as a javascript library like p5.js to render AI output.
