Created by me using my own locally run Stable Diffusion XL 1.0 (SDXL) model with a custom LoRA trained with my own acrylic paintings and ink washes, with additional editing in GIMP and Inkscape.
Based on my own physical sketches.

I've been a professional artist for over 15 years, dude. I've had gallery showings. Nothign about me is "lazy now" because I still start my stuff with my own ideas, sketches, color choices, compositions, and paintings, and I still physically paint every day. Sometimes I feed those into AI and enjoy seeing its interpretation. So “AI-assisted” is the better description than “AI created it.” I like to play around and see what it does with my own stuff and how in interprets it. I doubt very much that the early abstractionists would have shied away from ai.
But hey you keep on hating. I'll keep having fun and doing whatever I want. Because what I do isn't motivated by you or anyone else liking it. I do it for me. :)

“Abstract” art based on a series of rules and models to create it. Kinda defeats the purpose and definition, no?

Not at all. I've been a professional artist over 15 years. Abstract art has never meant “random” or “without rules.” A huge amount of abstract art is built around deliberate ideas: color relationship, balance, repetition, geometry, rhythm, proportion, negative space, etc. Look up Kandinsky, Mondrian or geometric abstraction, some good Bauhaus (my fav in college) artists.
Abstraction is moving away from literal representtation and using shape, color, form, and composition

EDIT to further clarify:
Having said all that, I don't really follow those rules because I'm a Refusalist and my art_anti-art doesn't owe you beauty, meaning, labor, skill, or explanation. But I just wanted you to know that for many in the art world, abstract rules exist in a somewhat vague form.
