Do you consider AI a tool, or its own creative entity?

Tbh I've been centralist for most of the AI art improvements, but I've grown to hate both sides for what they say to the others. I've never considered it a "Tool". A tool for me, is something that can be used to achieve a consistent result, yet if I fed the exact same prompt into ChatGPT I would get a different result.

It just doesn't sit right with me that people claim they "Made" this art, when its essentially the same as a commission. You gave the idea, but you aren't the artist.

I really do want to hear your guy's opinion on this, I understand that most in the community have different opinions either supports or against, but I want to hear them!
