    I can go to an online artist and commission a piece of art, but it doesn’t make me the creator, and similarly, if I prompt an AI to generate the image, it doesn’t make me the creator of the image.

      Digital art is a thing. Just because something takes text input and not a mouse doesn’t change the fact you are using a tool to create art.

        You misunderstood me, of course digital art is art when created by an artist, but if I pay an artist to make something I want, it doesn’t make me the creator.

        If I prompt an AI, it doesn’t make me the creator either.
