Perhaps it would be better if you clarified why you think it would be? There is no mention of passwords in the article at all.

Somehow I doubt da Vinci and a modern digital artist toiling away in Photoshop would be able to agree on the definition of, or criteria for, what it means to be an artist...

I paint digitally and with acrylic and oil, which isn’t that different from the methods Da Vinci would have utilized. If you wanted to paint the Mona Lisa in photoshop the expertise required is the same minus only color mixing and physical preparation and finishing.

So, you're really saying the expertise required is not the same, then?

Regardless of method, saying “paint this picture for me” isn’t making art. The claim is on its face absurd.

Who is claiming that? Not me. Anyone who has used a generative AI tool for more than 10 seconds knows this isn't true.

If I go to the hospital and say “heal this person” am I now a doctor?

This is a bad analogy. If in some far off future we had some magical "auto-doc" device that could heal injuries, etc., but still required someone with sufficient knowledge to operate the device, I would call them a doctor, or perhaps a medical engineer. Yes.

Weird how all it takes to turn an ostensible leftist into a sneering lib condescending to an entire classification of worker is to insult their little toy.

What did you mean by this? The only one sneering and condescending here is you lol.

If that were true, there would be no reason for advanced tools like ComfyUI to exist.
