Ⅲ.阅读理解 (2024·深圳高二检测)In August，Jason M．Allen's piece “Theatre D'opéra Spatial”—which he created with AI image generator Midjourney—won first place in the emerging artist division's “digital arts photography” category at the Colorado State Fair Fine Arts Competition.The definition for the category states that digital art refers to works that use “digital technology as part of the creative process”． Allen's award­winning image has led to debates about what，exactly，it means to be an artist and whether AI can truly make art.“It felt bad for the exact same reason we don't let robots participate in the Olympics，” one Twitter user wrote.“Exciting times ahead for the world of art and innovation！” another tweeted. Yet while Allen didn't use a paintbrush，there was plenty of work involved，he said.First，he played around with phrasing that led Midjourney to generate images of women in elegant dresses and space helmets，in an attempt to mix Victorian­style costuming with space themes.Over time，with many slight changes to his written instructions，he created 900 different versions of what led to his final image.Then he improved the picture's quality through Gigapixel AI and finally had the images printed. Allen is glad the debate over whether AI can be used to make art is attracting so much attention.“Rather than hating on the technology，we need to recognize that it's a powerful tool and use it for good so we can all move forward，” Allen said. Cal Duran，one of the judges for the competition，said that while Allen's piece included a mention of AI，he didn't realize that when judging it.Still，he sticks by his decision to award it first place.“I think the AI technology may give more opportunities to people who may not find themselves artists in the conventional way，” he said. 1．What do we know about Colorado State Fair Fine Arts Competition?
