"Far from liberating creativity from the strictures of conventional mediums, technology like AI is only serving to constrain the artist’s vision. There are exceptions—like Albert Oehlen and Richard Prince, both of whom subvert tech optimism by prankishly misusing their computer programs to create scrappy, consciously juvenile collages—but in general, neo-modernist painters are indeed not using their new tools; the new tools are using them."
(I love that I am not the only one hating Refik Anadol's empty works that in German I tend to call "Pixel wichsen" (Pixel jerkoff))
