That's what's interesting, to understand what we're losing and what we're gaining.
I believe art is an integral part of our humanity, this radical change in art, will definitely cause a radical change in what it is to be human.
I personally tend to think it'll take current capitalistic trends to the extreme. Automatically personalized optimized art for purely hedonistic entertainment. This will be what we'll mostly experience.
We'll lose that fragile bridge between the islands that are our individualities that art allows. The transmission of internal mental process of one person, her unique one of a kind perception and expression experienced to some degree by another. As a way to communicate, not just to cause pleasure.
It's a huge loss IMHO. It's much more substantial than copyright issues and jobs. The artists positions in the article articulate this, for some reason quotes like: “Artists are not just a ‘style.’ They’re not a product. They’re a breathing, experiencing person,” are being read as artists being scared for their livelihood. Why not read it as it's written? As artists fearing for their humanhood?
