Synthesized answer
The provided passages do not directly explain the distinction between "AI Aesthetics" and "AI in art" or "aesthetic AI." However, "AI Aesthetics" is described as offering a "systematic framework to help us think about cultural uses of AI today and in the future" [Passage 1]. This suggests a more comprehensive approach that goes beyond just the presence of AI in art or the aesthetic qualities of AI itself.
What is missing from the passages is a detailed explanation of what "aesthetics" specifically implies within the context of "AI Aesthetics," nor does it elaborate on how this differs from "AI in art" or "aesthetic AI." The passages do not provide the necessary detail to fully answer your question.

More questions about this book
- What core components or perspectives would you expect a truly "systematic framework" for understanding cultural AI uses to include, and why is such a structured approach more beneficial than examining individual cases in isolation?
- Beyond obvious artistic applications, describe two less conventional "cultural uses of AI" that Manovich's framework might help analyze, and explain the unique cultural impact of each.
- How might the "systematic framework" need to dynamically adapt or expand its scope to adequately address the unpredictable and emerging "future" cultural uses of AI, as opposed to merely documenting current trends?
- What kinds of critical questions or societal implications might such a "systematic framework" overlook or struggle to address, particularly when trying to connect technological developments with human culture?
