I think the biggest tragedy is the disappointing quality of AI generated media. I can't believe no one is saying this, but right now AI sucks! Its "art" is mediocre nonsense and unusable for any commercial or even aesthetic consumption. Even the images used in the article (presented as "mind-blowing") are laughably bad.

The conjecture that AI "aesthetics" may become a norm and may be accepted as a standard of creativity is truly lamentable.
