> Whenever something becomes cheaper (in this case, labor for art), its consumption increases. So in the future, because producing commercial art is so much cheaper, it will be consumed a lot more. I have the opposite view. With lower barrier of entry it will get over-saturated, over-produced and consumers will suffer from content fatigue leading to less interest in AI generated media as a whole. An analogy is luxury goods. Reducing price of luxury goods decreases demand for them. |

It'd be great if that was made easier so that more folks could participate/make a living. Then again, I think that every time that was made simpler (eg. Flash, Dreamweaver/export to html, JQuery, ...) has resulted in a slew of crap.
So: the lower the barrier to entry, the more actual skill/artistry becomes important for a high quality result.
Phrased differently: once the drudge work becomes mechanised, the concept of quality is lifted to a new level. This highlights aspects that used to be stuck in the mud of the drudge work, enabling a more profound understanding... by those with the necessary skills to do so.
