For 3 years now, I've gotten into arguments with both AI bros and artists about this. The main point of art is its cultural space (its creator, the zeitgeist etc.).

A human premium, and an elevation of human made art was always inevitable. Most "AI art" token spend is TPS reports, and explainer slides, maybe educational materials on the fringes. Maybe there is a chance some forms of AI art becomes its own new medium (like theater vs "the talkies") but it was never going to be a replacement.

Just 3 years of pointless hand-wringing, headlines and breathless interviews for nothing.

"Aaron Sorkin says he will never use AI".

Yes. No one asked him to! But alas, clickbait rules all.
