"Original Content".

Is it content? Yes.

Is it original? That depends on the context. What do you ask about, in what context? Where is it placed? Which AI? How was it trained? How does it replicate?

If someone generates an image, it is original in that narrow context - between them and the AI.

Is the AI producing originals, original interpretations, original replications, or only transforming other content? I don't think you can make a general statement on that. It's too broad, unspecific of a question.

You absolutely can make a general statement. Humans don't make original content if you don't think AIs do. The process is basically the same. A human learns to make art, and specific styles, and then produces something from that library of training. An AI does the same thing.

People saying an AI doesn't create art from a human prompt don't understand how humans work.

No. It's like microwaving a TV dinner and saying you cooked.

There are levels to everything. People have a very shallow understanding of how these tools work.

Some ai art is low effort.
Some ai art is extremely involved.

It can often take longer to get what you want out of it than it would've to have just drawn it. I've spent 8 or 9 hours fiddling with inputs and settings for a piece and it still didn't come out as good as it would have if I had commissioned an artist.

I've been using it to get "close" then using it as a reference when commissioning things
