The AI-generated art market is experiencing explosive growth, with auctions and exhibitions attracting global attention

AI-generated art has become an emerging force in the global art world. In the past year, multiple auctions and exhibitions of AI-generated art works have attracted widespread attention in the industry, marking that AI art is gradually entering the mainstream market and becoming an important part of the creative industry.
