    Prompting does not make anything, it is like saying you cooked a meal because you picked it in a vending machine.

      It is more like writing a recipee down and giving it to a chef who uses their skill to interpret the recipe and make a new dish. The dish doesn’t belong wholly to the chef, despite the skill nearly wholly residing with the chef. The person who wrote the recipee isn’t a chef, but they are involved in making the dish that was their idea.

        Yeah but we don’t say “I made these cookies” when all we did was hand someone the recipe, now do we?

        No, because telling someone or something to make something doesn’t mean we get to say we made it.

          So you are saying that the person who made the recipe had no input to the process of cooking the resultant food? Nobody claims they “drew” something when they design an AI prompt. When you see a Frank Lloyd Write building do you say, "Nah he didn’t build that, he just made some plans. A contractor built it. Frank Lloyd Write isn’t an artist, he is just a prompt writer. "

            Don’t break your arm patting yourself on the back for putting an order in at the restaurant. That chef would make something with or without you.

            Lmao about you trying to compare ai prompters to Frank Lloyd Write, when he actually did the design work and you can’t.

            Oh, sorry, you’re right, prompters never say they drew something, they just claim to be artists when they clearly aren’t. Should’ve figured you’d nitpick word choices it’s about the only think you’re capable of.
