It’s probably not the same kind of worldview crisis but the fact that by massively commodifying unique (and that’s the key word since unique work costs more) business friendly corporate clip art and stock photo type content without needing anyone with artistic talent or skill, it’s going to suck away a lot of the money that would otherwise have gone to artists who otherwise don’t have a great career track as far as “average income” is concerned. Struggling artist is a meme for a reason, and when it’s as easy as “push button… receive art” it’s hard to imagine that not making it even more of a struggle. Which does feel like a somewhat incipient worldview crisis in a more career viability sort of way.
