Just going back to basics baby. Artists getting patrons to fund their work, rich bragging about which real artist they fund.
Serious note though, all this AI art panic just sounds like people discovering photoshop can do all the work with none of the physical artist tools. More people won’t be able to support themselves solely through art, which has been happening “checks notes” since art was a thing. Humans will adapt as they usually do.
Well, almost... I won't mention those who died because of AI, it seems you don't care about it, and I ask you not to bring it up. And I will say this: there are limits to human adaptation, and if he exceeds them, he will either break down, or become a soulless machine, not a human, or will live forever as a broken robot, etc.
