Do you mind explaining in more details? Sounds like an interesting perspective

I won’t pretend to be a specialist but I would think decreasing the work and skills to produce artful pieces would greatly increase their production hence decreasing their value.

The value of real people with real skills doing real stuff would not be impacted, or would even become more prized.

we will soon be desensitized to "art" as we know it today in various forms: drawing/painting, music, literature etc

you mentioned "print" as a technology but you're discounting the fact that we're talking about a different beast here. a beast that can bring your imagination to life and wow you.

isn't art something that wows the audience and takes them places? and if a machine generated thing is coherent enough to paint our imagination for us, do you get where we're headed now?

art as we know today will be understood better by future humans, just like we now understand religion and human constructs way better than even Nietzche did during his time. when he said "god is dead" it was shocking and profound, now we're all like "yeah god is dead who gives a shit".

humans have a peculiar way of finding new constructs and making it a trend. a few of us see that, rest are just discussing art like it was not a human construct and as if the universe has a thing like "art" in there lol.
