As far as I can see, the whole history of art is a long argument about whether something can be called art or not. It's always art

As a recent example, Tron was disqualified for a visual effects Oscar because it was all done on computer and therefore seen as cheating, instead of being recognised aa both an incredible achievement and a precursor for the next 40 years of filmmaking. [1]

Imagine the howls when the first film with significant amounts of AI effects is released.
