Summary

"It's incredible that technology can create something simply with a prompt of what a person wants. However, would Starry Night be regarded as it is if it had been created with GenAI instead of Van Goh? In this book, readers consider the pros and cons of GenAI, what it can and can't do, and the importance of the human spark of creativity that leads to great paintings. The concluding chapters encourage readers to look for inspiration beyond their favorite screen and then try to create their own artwork-totally made by a human"-- Provided by publisher.
