The best explanation I've seen for why AI art doesn't deliver like human art is this from Ted Chiang:

> Art is notoriously hard to define, and so are the differences between good art and bad art. But let me offer a generalization: art is something that results from making a lot of choices. […] to oversimplify, we can imagine that a ten-thousand-word short story requires something on the order of ten thousand choices. When you give a generative-A.I. program a prompt, you are making very few choices; if you supply a hundred-word prompt, you have made on the order of a hundred choices.

> If an A.I. generates a ten-thousand-word story based on your prompt, it has to fill in for all of the choices that you are not making.
