The emergence of Generative Artificial Intelligence (G-AI) has changed the landscape of creative arts with its power to compose novel artwork and thus brought ethical concerns. Despite the efforts by prior works to address these concerns from technical and societal perspectives, there exists little discussion on this topic from an HCI point of view, considering the artists as human factors. We sought to investigate the impact of G-AI on artists, understanding the relationship between artists and G-AI, in order to motivate the underlying HCI research. We conducted semi-structured interviews with artists ($N=25$) from diverse artistic disciplines involved with G-AI in their artistic creation. We found (1) a dilemma among the artists, (2) a disparity in the understanding of G-AI between the artists and the AI developers(3) a tendency to oppose G-AI among the artists. We discuss the future opportunities of HCI research to tackle the problems identified from the interviews.

翻译：生成式人工智能（G-AI）的出现以其创作全新艺术作品的能力改变了创意艺术格局，并由此引发了伦理问题。尽管先前的研究已从技术和社会视角探讨了这些问题，但鲜有从人机交互（HCI）角度出发，将艺术家作为人为因素进行讨论。我们旨在探究G-AI对艺术家的影响，理解艺术家与G-AI之间的关系，以此推动HCI领域的相关研究。我们对来自不同艺术学科且在其艺术创作中涉及G-AI的艺术家（N=25）进行了半结构化访谈。研究发现：（1）艺术家群体中存在两难困境；（2）艺术家与人工智能开发者对G-AI的理解存在差异；（3）艺术家普遍对G-AI持反对倾向。我们探讨了HCI研究解决访谈中识别问题的未来机遇。
