I think that's probably right too. I think it's also important to remember right now most of us are not really artists trying to tell our stories, move people, call to people, whatever, with our art. Most people playing with this stuff right now are techheads faffing around with cool new toys. In the future, I don't know how I'll feel but I suspect when I just want audible distraction, I'll be fine with an infinite loop of AI generated inoffensive tropical house. That won't be the same as seeking out or discovering something a human made, and I don't know I'll care about the tools they used to make it, I'll still be interested to learn why they made it, how they made it, etc.

I went to art school in the early 2000s, lived the second wave of analogue to digital change in the motion picture industry. I was somewhat worried about AI in art, these days I'm changing my mind, I think it will be fine/good and will push the meaning of art even further, that's always good. now I'm excited. Humans will always have emotions. Artists will always art. Humans will always seek out other humans emotions thru art.
