No, Prompting AI Doesn’t Make You an Artist.

No, Prompting AI Doesn’t Make You an Artist.

We’re living in an age where typing a sentence into an AI image generator now counts as “creating art.” But let’s be clear: giving instructions isn’t the same as making something. Prompting Midjourney, DALL·E, ChatGPT, or any AI tool doesn’t magically turn you into an illustrator, a designer, or a creative genius. That’s like ordering food and calling yourself a chef.

In this short, I break down one of the most popular lines of the AI era: “Why should only artists get to make art?” It sounds revolutionary — but it hides a dangerous misunderstanding of what art actually is. The difference between real creativity vs prompting, between original art vs AI-generated content, matters more than ever in this age of automation.

If you’ve ever wondered what it means to be a real artist in the age of AI, or why so many people are confusing AI tools with human creativity, this one’s for you. Whether you’re using AI art generators, AI music tools, or AI video platforms, here’s the truth: the tool isn’t the artist. You’re the client. The AI is doing the labor.

This is part of an ongoing series exploring AI and creativity, artists vs algorithms, and how we protect artistic value in a world obsessed with speed and scale.
