@Catelli @ZachWeinersmith@mastodon.so(A) Electrical impulses in silicon really aren't so different from electrical impulses in biological neurons.

(B) Many humans make art, not because they desire to, but because they were told to and they desire a paycheck (like making an actress 10 lbs thinner in every frame of a movie).

(C) Finally, I think the idea that only humans can make art, in a way, incorrectly anthropomorphizes art itself. When the whole of nature comes together to create a beautiful landscape, and a human comes along and takes a picture of that, who is really the artist?

@LouisIngenthron @Catelli Is art what is created by the artist, or what is interpreted by the viewer? (Or, of course, a combination of both.)
