Thanks :) I actually think it's still 100% valid, no? Isn't what he is saying is that human intervention and judgement are the essential requirement for art?

Aaah, thank you for the clarification! I understood it differently at first, as he is saying that real art cannot be made with a computer (I heard that before in many forms).

Not at all, its easy to see it that way too, so i totally get where you are coming from. He is being a bit irreverent.
