Well, in that case, it still sounds to me like View 2: “Only humans will be able discriminate against art upon learning a computer / monkey / child / prankster made it, pendejo!”
But that discussion was about science. Nonhuman science is the same thing as human science, so discriminating is irrational. Nonhuman art is (will) not be (necessarily) the same as human art, and it is quite possible that it will not be at all enjoyable by humans.
But it will (likely) be the case that people’s opinions about particular artwork will dive sharply downward upon learning it was mostly the work of a computer, even as the pre-revelation opinion is higher than average.
Nonhuman science is the same thing as human science
And the experimental evidence for this is what?
More substantially—it is perfectly possible to have a great deal of difference in the
emphasis placed on various subfields in the sciences. If we’d gone directly from
vacuum tubes to Drexler/Merkle nanotechnology, do you think semiconductor device
physics would have been studied as deeply as it has been?
