Sadly for many artists the AI is/will be better than the average artist. I compare it to elite football players. "FIFA estimated that there were 123,694 professional soccer players worldwide." [0]. How many are really elite football players? Probably less than 2200 [22 (11 field + 11 outfield players) * 100 (top countries)]. Top 10% artists probably will get very well paid job but the rest will either get fired or salaries reduced or stagnant.

- pzo 2y agoBetter in being good enough to be hired for the job and being paid.
- 23B1 2y agoCommercial artist, maybe. Real artists, nah. I'm aware the difference between those two things is mucky, but 'real' art is exclusively a human-to-human communication. You can use AI to augment your work for sure, but even then it won't carry as much emotional weight (read: value) as Guernica or the Ecstasy of Santa Teresa.
