It has nothing to do with AI venture capitalists. Also not every profession is entitled to income, some are fine to remain as primarily hobbies.

AI art is replacing corporate art which is not something we should be worried about. Less people working on that drivel is a net good for humanity. If can get billions of hours wasted on designing ads towards real meaningful contributions we should added billions extra hours to our actual productivity. That is good.

The ratio of using AI to replace ad art:fraud/plagiarism has to be somewhere around 1:1000.

“Actual productivity” is a nonsense term when it comes to art. Why is this

Without checking the source, can you even tell which one is art for an ad and which isn’t?

I would assume the first to be an ad, because most of depicted people look happy

I’m not sure what’s your point here? Majority of art is drivel. Most art is produced for marketing. Literally. If that can be automated away what are we losing here? McDonald’s logos? Not everything needs to be a career.

Yes it is. Otherwise it is not a profession. People go to school for years to become professional artists. They are absolutely entitled to income.

But hey, you want your murals painted by robots and your wall art printed out, have fun. I’m not interested in your brave new world.
