Eventually AI could have more qualitative consciousness than humans. Human self-awareness is limited - there are lots of parts of our minds (most) people have no idea how to pay attention to intentionally, let alone be aware of continuously. An AI with agency over this aspect of its self could easily expand its awareness past what humans are capable of.

That's actually a great analogy.
You're not a cook because you picked ingredients for a sandwich someone else makes, just like you're not an artist because you chose the subject matter of low effort AI-generated pictures.
But you can still have fun picking out good ingredients and enjoy the result!

The negative reaction to lots of non-artists getting the chance to make something they find aesthetically nice and imitating a style they admire is insane.
No person who types a few words into ChatGPT is going to start thinking of themself as better than Miyazaki.
I can understand criticizing the way OpenAI is profiting from this, but please don't call regular people trying out a new tool barbaric and dystopian.
