- Arguments for valuing humans often hinge on AI's inability to match human quality, but this relies on a narrowing capability gap that may not persist.
- A more robust view asserts human value unconditionally, without needing justification from AI benchmarks or output quality.
- Quality in creative works involves intent and form; AI can produce form with minimal intent, risking 'slop' where intent is unclear.
- Generative AI lowers barriers to creating form without discernible intent, a pathology less common in manual creation where intent is more embedded.
- Human dignity and value are inherent, not dependent on abilities or output, as reflected in theological and philosophical perspectives.
