The market at large will determine that. If people value cheap AI generated images more than talented human curated art then that's what it will be. If a market exists to buy unique pieces where an artist put brush to canvas and priced their work at $1000 instead of the cheap $10 poster that can be mass produced then thats what it will be. If no one wants to pay $1000 for your unique piece, then the market has spoken and your art is not worth that much. Like everything else, an equilibrium ill be reached. Good artists will be fine. The other 99% of self declared artists will fade away into obscurity.

Similar to how if you took commissioned art, printed out 1000 copies, and sold them for $1 a piece. Copyright means that you need to at least pay that artist you stole from in some way, which the government enforces so artists don't stop creating.
