A polemic for those who want to see what outrage conceals. The current debate about Artificial Intelligence in art is not being led by those who work with it, but by those who write about it, often without knowing it. Hermann Selchow steps out of this silence. In five essays he shows why the fierce judgements on AI art operate with false concepts, what the witch-hunt on AI authors reveals about the audience itself - and where the real difference between human and machine in art actually lies. From Plato's suspicion of mimesis to the AI detectors of German classrooms, from the case of the author Mia Ballard to the BookTok shelves of bookshops: Selchow tests the arguments of AI criticism against their own standards and uncovers what is really being negotiated under the dispute about the machine. A defence of responsible work with AI that at the same time argues more sharply against the auto-generate flood than its blanket critics. At the centre stands a simple distinction: not human against machine, but judgement against automatism. Whoever judges is an author. Whoever merely passes things on is not - with or without AI. A third position between the camps. Written from practice, for those who want to think rather than be outraged.
