Not sarcasm.
My comment is a reaction to this idea that a ChatGPT-generated image has the same value as one done by a Picasso. It's still art and it still can have artistic value, but it'll never possess the intangibles carried by, say, Guernica.
I think curation, in the age of procedurally-generated content, will be one of the most gratifying or at least profitable jobs to have. It already is, if you think about it; film studio heads, music producers like Rick Rubin, Anna Wintour/Vogue, and the MoMA... all wield curatorial power (for better or for worse).

- autobodie 1y agoProfit and income are two different things. Jobs make income, not profit. Aggregate profit and income from curation (both) have dropped off a cliff, so I'm not sure what your point is. Of course a select few will always be rewarded by the wealthy for hand-made delicacies, including curation, and the demand will correlate with wealth accumulation but remain scarce. There is nothing new or novel about it either way.
