prompt to a machine to have it generate something that exists only because the unethical AI companies illegally trained AI models on stolen intellectual property.

What AI takes from a photo or painting is what a photocopier takes, which is a mindless copy, and not a human's perception of it with individual impressions and emotions.

What you generated there using Google's Gemini is AI slop. Gemini has no awareness of what was generated, and you had no real control over what it churned out. Even if you gave the AI a detailed prompt, you still don't have an artist's conscious control, and AI users sometime generate hundreds or more images until one pops up that they like, and then they claim it as if they'd actually created it and all the options they were offered earlier didn't exist.

Using AI can never make anyone an artist. They'll still be only an AI user who wants to pretend to be an artist but never bothered to learn how to create art.

AI "art" is kind of like online shopping with keywords for color, brand, etc. The shopper doesn't create what's found. I've also seen it compared to ordering from a menu and then pretending to have been the chef.

It's meaningless pretense at best, a waste of time, electricity and water. And it's fraud if the AI use isn't revealed.
