This article delves into the intricate relationship between humanity and artificial intelligence or machine learning models, exploring what the author calls the "AI loop," a conceptual framework describing the current and upcoming co-emergence of humans with AI/ML technologies, analogically to historical, reciprocal entanglements between humans and technosphere. Through a critical examination of AI's impact on artistic practice and creativity, the article challenges prevailing narratives of AI's transformative potential while proposing a nuanced understanding of an "after AI art." Drawing on papers published by Oxford Internet Institute and Creative AI Lab, the author contextualizes AI/ML within broader socio-political and philosophical frameworks, questioning conventional notions of creativity and human agency. The article advocates for a re-evaluation of the trajectory of art post-AI, emphasizing the need for inclusive, critical, careful, and ethical consideration of engagement with AI/ML technologies in artistic practice and beyond.
