Yes, I know how commissions are similar. But is giving someone else your ideas for them to make it really the same experience as making it yourself? Obviously requesting some guy/machine to do it is not nearly the same journey as picking up equipment, sitting down and trying to create what you see.

AI "art" is not making art. It's telling someone else to create it.

There's probably another layer of encoding.

this feels like ai for some reason
