SUMMARY:Is AI generated art really art? - Milena Ivanova (Leverhulme Centr
 e for the Future of Intelligence\, Cambridge)

DESCRIPTION:After 'Théâtre D'opéra Spatial' (2022) won a prize in the C
 olorado State Fair's annual art competition there was a very strong outcry
  in the media that this signified the 'end of art'. Allen himself was quot
 ed in the _New York Times_ saying 'Art is dead\, dude. It's over. AI won. 
 Humans lost.' I start my analysis with the status question and the existen
 tial threat question\, turning then to the value question and creativity q
 uestion surrounding generated art. I will argue that far from posing a thr
 eat to artists or not qualifying as deserving art status\, we should be fo
 cusing on what value generated images can have\, and how they are transfor
 ming the creative process.
