So perhaps

Original artwork

rather than

Original art

?

Yes, that would be better.

Well, if it is not a work of art, what is it?

Thank you for explaining.

Indeed. It was JAmedia and Ali who used the word "stolen".

Yet neither has stated what, exactly, precisely, they are claiming has been stolen.

The issue was whether or not the art is original. As there is no artist involved, then it cannot be considered as art. That's my point. You may choose to think otherwise, but you won't persuade me that these are works of art.

It is a machine-generated picture. No artist, no artistic talent required. That's my opinion, to which I am entitled, and it is different to yours.

I am not going to be drawn on this any further: you must accept that my opinion differs to yours and I don't need to prove anything to you in order to validate my opinion any more than you need to validate yours for me.

My opinion: this is not a work of art.
Your opinion: this is a work of art.

As I see it, the issue is whether the piece (however derivative it may be) deserves to be called ‘art’. Everything ever written uses letters and words which — with the exception of neologisms — have been used before, but they’re put together in different ways. Likewise, everything ever painted uses materials that a true artist could use, but imitating the style of, say, Monet or Manet or Picasso or Pissarro doesn’t put the work on a par with that of the masters.
