I think this is confused

All of the people who I was reading and listening to and watching before AI are all still creating. Many of them are even creating new things or new types of things

I imagine breaking into the creative industry is "harder" today than it was five years ago and much harder than it was ten years ago etc, but in some ways everything is still so new.

This dismissal of creativity or people's drive to create or anything created after "the ChatGPT moment" is simply wrong and lazy thinking

But then there's the morality of it, because you're essentially expecting people to be highly motivated by not-money for your own pleasure. Which might be the case today, but I don't necessarily think will be the case forever.

Yes, musicians for instance will always create music, even if they're dirt poor. That doesn't mean though we should strive to make them as dirt poor as possible to maximally optimize the agreement in our favor. That's a separate issue.
