Y'all got any good/interesting AI art?

It's very common for people to describe gen AI as a creative tool that allows more people to create art but I'm not gonna lie, pretty much all of the AI art I've seen has been... unimpressive to say it politely. I don't really go out of my way to look at stuff though so anyone got any examples of AI art that's like creatively interesting or has a unique style or anything like that?

ETA: Thank you to everyone who shared their art or art they liked. I got several kinds of answers that definitely challenged some of my perspectives and I genuinely had a lot of fun talking to people. I'm tempted to do another AI Art critique in the future. if anyone is curious, here are my general conclusions both negative and positive:

Gen AI may be capable of functioning as an authentic artistic medium and there are some people attempting to use it as such. However it's clear that an overwhelming majority of AI art/users are not interested in artistic endeavors and use the software as a content machine. Of the more interesting examples I have seen, I do not think AI adds much to the initial concept or execution. The parts I appreciate were almost exclusively direct contributions by the artist and the weakest elements were almost always the AI. Moreover, even the best examples were marred by AI's characteristics such as being unfocused, lacking detail, being recognizeable rubbery/uncanny, or being too derivitive/recreative without significant iteration. I felt as if every piece I liked would be better executed via traditional/digital art that allowed the design to be more intentional and pushed artists to flesh-out their idea more thuroughly. It also seems like the community isn't providing a lot of artistic perspectives/support/feedback to people trying to make interesting things, which really bums me out cause a lot of you seemed hungry for that type of atmosphere and conversation. Ateast, that's what this very limited view into things as shown me. There are definitely more relevant places to look. I really hope that y'all lean more into creative pursuits and build a more artistic community so that something can be made that's not only deep and nuanced and interesting, but that could only be made by AI. If any y'all got other interesting things to show off or want feedback on stuff you're making, feel free to hmu!
