In this Video I discuss some of the recent AI Art Controversy. Specifically whether 'Real Artists' can use AI in their process.
I talk about the history of technological assistance that artists have used as well as the reliance on reference. As well as the importance of having a solid illustration process.

...Does the end justify the means?
