My experience with that is that artistic milieus now sometimes even explicitly admit that the difference is who created the art.
"Human that suffered and created something" => high quality art
"The exact same thing but by a machine" => soulless claptrap
It's not about the end result.
A lot could be written about this but it's completely socially unacceptable.
Whether an analogous thing will happen with beautiful mathematical proofs or physical theories remains to be seen. I for one am curious, but as far as art is concerned, in my view it's done.
