Embrace Change: Innovation Reshapes Art

Transformative art movements typically face skepticism and rejection from the public and critics initially, highlighting a historical pattern where innovation is misperceived. The introduction of AI in art is a continuation of this journey; rather than posing a threat to traditional media, it is a collaborative tool that expands creative possibilities. The misconception that AI simply steals from existing artwork undermines its generative process, which involves understanding and reimagining concepts rather than mere copying. Artists using AI can experience a joyful, liberating creative process, despite facing backlash and misunderstanding. Eventually, as with previous movements, the wider artistic community will likely embrace the potential of AI, recognizing its role as a new form of artistic expression.
