The defence rests its case.

The Cambridge Dictionary defines art for one thing as "an activity through which people express particular ideas: " - in which case AI prompting and guiding is art.

American Heritage says "The conscious use of the imagination in the production of objects intended to be contemplated or appreciate" so providing it has a human guiding it then it is art.

And it's all a bit like the old "computer paint programs will ruin art"
