Branding and differentiation.

People still value Amish furniture or woodworking despite Ikea existing. I love that if I want a cheap chair made of cardboard and glue that I can find something to satisfy that need; but I still buy nice furniture when I can.

AI creations are analogous. I've seen some cool AI stuff, but it definitely doesn't replace the real "organic" art one finds.
