I sympathize with all artists who are concerned about these new tools. Once I thought about being a full time artist, but life got in the way.
However, visual art creates a cultural feedback loop that is constantly evolving, it is a crucial mirror that shows us stark naked. Just read the history of art.
People should not forget that there is no way this technology can make such a vital form of collective expression relevant without artists participating in it.
Of course it will disrupt a lot of things, and nobody enjoys that, but new ways of meaningfully involving humans in it will continue to emerge. Otherwise it would just cease to be relevant.
