This is a misunderstanding of AI (Stable Diffusion etc.), IMHO. The relation of AI-generated art, trained on human-generated art, to human creativity, is almost the same relation as human-generated art and history of human art and creativity to the nature/world/universe itself, as the ultimate source of all inspiration and creativity. The underlying neural networks (in humans [getting inspiration from nature] and in AI [getting "inspiration" from human-art]) work is (somewhat) similar ways.

AI (generated art) is just another derived layer on top of that and which is still in its infancy.
