people who don't care to do those things are using ai for them, leaving the people who do care, and usually spent a large part of their life learning how to do those things well, with nothing to do.

incidentally, learning how to do something properly makes it easier to see how bad ai is at that thing.

I like the fact that society depends on artists to have art. Artists like making art and society wants art. There's a cosmic balance in that. The world is designed in a way that gives people good jobs. The only problem is the fact that we use money and the artists need to be paid. If artists were just given enough food and housing by some sort of gift economy, it would all work out great.

I am unhappy that capitalists can now get art without relying on artists.

It is not people who likes to draw who are the customers, the customers are the people who need someone to draw for them. I mean this is literally happening on a massive scale right now, with artists being out of work because all those smaller jobs as illustrators which was their bread and butter gets done (badly) by AI instead.

The only true use I found for AI while programming is boilerplate, aka code that is really simple with only one way to do it.

I don't really have an equivalent for 2d art, but in 3D art that would be basic shapes like spheres, cubes, pyramids

So actually, the analogy would be a robot that unwrap the ice-cream's packaging for you.
