The inaccuracy or weirdness of the resulting images has no bearing on how good or bad it is as art. Art has nothing to do with that. I would argue this is a shitty tech demo more than anything else.

I do not mean to discount the creator as it’s cool regardless, it just doesn’t really have anything to do with art. They’re literally just running some old computer images through a technology. That’s it.

There will probably be good art conceived of good artists that uses this style and these techniques at some point, though.

Very similar stuff was said about the camera. Vermeer even essentially used one to win the realism competition in painting (of course later becoming Ayn Rand's favorite painter since he was the most "objective").
