IMO using AI to apply filters and effects to a picture you've taken yourself is legit. I created the original photo being modified through AI so.... is it art I made? Idk. Maybe this is self-serving since I accidentally paid for a Lensa subscription and now feel like I must use it to make stuff like this.

My old high school is in the news for being racist and I wish I was surprised.
