My worry is not if it can make great things. That was never going to be possible from a system that cant create original thoughts.
My worry is if it can make art that is “good enough”. If some middle manager eschews hiring an artist for some project and the results that AI spits out are enough that they still profit, that’s where the damage is done.
Rich people “rent” talent. That’s what money is good for.
That is WHY the rich want AI. AI allows “wealth” to access “talent” without letting talent access wealth.
Now what rich person would NOT want that?
And what poor person would want that?
See the problem yet?
The plagerism machine can never accurately simulate human art. It would never have the imagination required to make great things.

You can stop worrying.
Business ALWAYS chooses the quick and easy (cheap) way. Have you seen those quarterly reports?
isn’t producing better art the point of starving artists? or am I misunderstanding the phrase?
Artificial intelligence is not artistic, for that you need artificial empathy.
Art is the distillation of empathy. A “poetry” of emotions.
Good art will comfort the disturbed while at the same time disturb the comfortable.
