Other people can make art. Does that stop you from making art yourself? No? Then why should an AI creating art stop you?

Well one is that there will probably be proportionally fewer people to look at human works in the first place, and i think most artists will still like to have people looking at their work

. And two is feeling of satisfaction i guess. Learning and practicing for years to finally make the thing you want. Now it feels pointless if you can just use the machine to make it better and immediately.

We already know exactly what’s going’s to happen because it’s happened before. Before photography was invented, making portraits was a thriving industry, but once it became clear that no human could paint with as much detail and realism as a camera could, the industry died and the only people still making portraits were the people who did it out of love of the art, not for the money. It’ll be the same with art to varying degrees. Also, many people consider photography an art so in 20 years we’ll probably think about using ai the same way
