An Illustrator Confronts His Fears About A.I. Art

In my bedroom, pinned next to a mirror, are a few drawings that my kids made when they were 6 or 7: birthday doodles, strange stick figures, text riddled with cute typos.

They are some of my most precious possessions.

But recently I asked myself: What if I found out that these doodles were actually made — or even just “enhanced” — by A.I.?

Would I still treasure them?
