This work involves a program accessing a database to generate images based on parameters. It considers who should be credited as the creator of the visual content and whether the program’s involvement diminishes the significance of human creativity. The human contribution through code and user interaction introduces a layer of interpretation. It arises from philosophical and ethical considerations regarding the right to claim ownership over the truth emerging from collaborative or artistic endeavors.
