You could run it on your own PC instead
You could also draw in the sand with a stick or piss in the snow. I'm pretty sure the point is it doesn't take advanced technology to make art.

Then instead of a subscription, you're paying for a gpu and power. Not everyone has the money for a computer, but pretty much anyone can afford a pencil and paper.
Conversely, Cocteau wrote "Film will only become an art when its materials are as inexpensive as pencil and paper." Cameras: pretty cheap. Things to point them at: haven't changed much.
If you're using this tech to replace pencil and paper, it's a hard sell. If you're using it to replace Hollywood, it's a steal.
