Final Fantasy artist Yoshitaka Amano on why AI can't replace human creativity and his next project ZAN

I think AI is a tool. It's a tool that can be used to create art, but it can't replace human creativity. It can't replace the human experience.

When I create art, I'm not just drawing a picture. I'm drawing my experiences, my emotions, my thoughts. That's something AI can't do.

The physical act of creating art is important. The feel of the brush, the smell of the paint, the sound of the pencil on paper. These are all part of the creative process.
