I am pretty pessimistic about all this to be honest. My main hope is that people will come to see all this as kind of tacky, and/or that there will be some reconsideration of what "fair use" means that renders existing work in this realm illegal. Artists need to eat too, if our audience stops paying for our work because this shit is good enough for their needs then we are not going to afford to spend all day making art any more. Unless someone can wave a wand and provide basic income to everyone and I sure do not see that happening in the capitalist hell of the US economy any more.
