    "But if anything, it strengthens the point."

    No, it really doesn't. The value in Fountain has nothing to do with the tangible piece of art itself. That's what I'm trying to communicate to you.

    Attempting to boil "art" down to any one quantifiable aspect is impossible. That is the point of the anti-art like Fountain.

    In other words, I disagree with your assumption that highly polished corporate art is superior to home made "mediocre" art. I grew up with TV shows like 12 OZ Mouse, Home Movies, Shin Chan, Tom goes to the Mayor, etc. If you think running those shows through generative AI would improve the shows... I would say again you don't understand what made that art good.

    At best you could try to make a case for "death of the author" but I'm not sure if that principal applies to art that never had an author.
