I'm not so sure. Considering how successful AI-driven social media feeds are, which already include substantial AI-generated content, why would a feed consisting entirely of such content be any less successful? The quality will only keep increasing.

I don't think these advancements are a threat to art created by humans, just as any art created by humans isn't a threat to other art. It's just... more art.
Eventually, AI will be capable of being truly creative, instead of being trained on human art and producing permutations of it, which will also be wonderful.
The role of humans will be to train these models to produce art we find enjoyable. Imagine if your AI media feed was an infinite stream of artworks personalized just for your taste. It will be TikTok on steroids. I can't say I'm thrilled by that prospect, because it will also be used for exploiting users, but the entertainment potential is huge.
