I'm sorry but am I the only one experiencing time dilation? You can't say ' X was supposed to be a big deal but was not' when the number of months since X began is single-digit.

Come back in ten years and tell me that there was no threat.

Also, for anyone living under a rock, the 'AI art style' --- by which you probably mean MidJourney 3 style --- has been steadily disappearing across MJ 4 and 5.

So, yes, actually, artists may now be 'obsolete', at least in the sense of 'viable form of capitalism for an adult North American to pursue as a profession'.

Circumstances for artists were already the worst they'd ever been, in real terms, even before this. Going forward, 'graphic designer', like 'music engineer', is going to be five people with real talent and 20,000 cool kids with trust funds. Everyone else fights for a job at Wal-Mart.

Best queue for your shift, the pinnies that fit well always get grabbed first
