| Abstract: | This paper explores cases in which artists have successfully deceived both the public and experts by blurring the line between traditional photography and AI-assisted images. It also refers to historical examples of highly convincing painting forgeries that were long regarded as authentic. The discussion emphasizes that distinguishing originals from copies, forgeries, or AI-generated works has never been simple and will become increasingly challenging as AI technologies evolve. At the same time, the paper highlights the positive potential of AI in the restoration of old master artworks, where it can support conservation processes and offer new insights. In the context of appropriation art, it examines artistic practices that quote or reuse existing works as a creative strategy capable of producing new meanings and original outcomes. The paper concludes by advocating openness toward new technologies, arguing that AI can stimulate creativity, expand artistic possibilities, and inspire innovative ideas. |
