Yes, we can and we will. It doesn't do what you're saying it does. We have seen some of the images it generates and a prompt for it, they were off a lot.

Also, even if it did, that's not the point of art. Good art is a process, failing is as much a part of that process, as is compromising, working around things etc. What such a thing would do is remove all that and create something lacking beauty, a 'soul' to be poetic about it.

All such things would do if they could do it 'perfectly' is teach people to never learn how to do things themselves which is a shame, because it would be wonderful to see what they could create if they had learned to actually make art instead of relying on something 'perfect' though as we've established, it isn't.
