Have you not seen the AI generated QR code embedded in an image ? I don't think it can be done without AI, Don't know if you would consider it art, but I do : for example here is the first one I got when googling it https://www.qrafted.ai/img/gallery/girl-3.jpeg

Like all AI things unfortunately the web is flooded with them now..

This is a very cool concept, but has anyone actually gotten this to read as a qr code?

I've tried a bunch of apps without any luck.

Yeah. I have the same question.

Embedding the features of one image into another to create an illusion is a task I'd consider AI for, IF the artist performing that task can be propelled by using the output as a base. If it takes far more manual correction by artist to the point that it takes longer to make a finished piece, or if the time spent enjoying the process is diminished, it's no longer worth it.

AI in art should be about automating the tasks that require scale or repetition, like how 3D graphics took much of the mathematical work from artists, letting them focus on sculpting their forms precisely.

Time freed from automating one task should be spent by the artist on another task, such that the work is done faster AND is appealing in a clear and obvious way.

The most "creative" way I've seen this done so far is using separate prompts for different 2d image elements in still painting, which appears to take longer to make less consistent results.

It feels like prompters rely on the divided tastes of the internet to convince people that their art looks good to someone, just not the current viewer.
