no its not
let me explain why:
Photoshop, since it was created, had the objective and function of improving and allowing better versatility and control for photographers and image editors. From the beginning, it had the objective of making life easier for those who already worked in the field.
But how? Photoshop used the raw material of the person who took the photograph, and the person used the program's properties to improve the photograph. Therefore, whatever comes out of the photoshop canvas, comes in as art and comes out as art.
On the other hand, we have images generated by AI, which use as a basis information stolen from art created by legitimate artists, the AI uses a prompt and searches the internet for all the pixel information in the art that leads to answering that prompt question. Therefore, every time you feed an AI you are stealing art, you are not creating the art itself or using a tool to improve something, it is simply criminal and unethical, and will be controlled by law in the future.
basically:
photoshop is a tool
AI "Art" is theft
not to mention that in the case I mentioned previously, even if he hadn't even used AI, and used photoshop to alter an existing frame of Xen's work, it would still be wrong, unethical and possibly subject to prosecution!
