@thomasfuchs very reductive idea of what art is. What is and is not art is an argument that’s been gone over for at least 100 years since Duchamp’s Fountain.
If someone wants to call something art then let it be judged on its merits. A lot of AI art is simply bad but an expression of art nonetheless.
Why Not Zoidberg? 
@gotbadger @thomasfuchs If it not created by something alive, then it is not art. No machine can create art.
@WhyNotZoidberg @thomasfuchs machines don't exist in isolation, they are a product of humans. From a spyrograph to a camera to a video game all machines that produce or facilitate renderings of art.
Personally I’d say physical landscapes created via natural processes can be art due to emotions they might invoke in the viewer. But I’ve no idea if many people feel like that or not.
@gotbadger @thomasfuchs you confuse a machine that plays art with a machine that "makes" art tho. A record player does not produce art.
As for the rest... Not per definition, but I know what you mean. A cultivated landscape like a park can be art, a wild untouched landscape is per definition not, since art requires input by a person; but it sure can resonate with you emotionally anyway.
