As someone who's pretty much always been interested in generative stuff (music, images) i disagree. I think there's beauty in both randomness and generative things. Nature is to me one of the most beautiful things to look at, it's neither lazy or soulless, yet no one made it, it just is.
Doesnt mean i think everything generative looks or sounds incredible or is interesting, same with nature. Most of it is not beautiful, it's the small gems you find out there that counts.
