>AI art is often terrible and slightly creepy. I have seen AI art that was fine. This is very rare. This is just the "special effects" problem all over again, its use is invisible if done correctly. Only the bad produced SFX sticks out and gets called "CGI". Much like a programmer using AI to supplement their existing knowledge, a lot of artists (way more than you think) are using AI to supplement production of their art. The product is indistinguishable from their non-AI work, it just takes a fraction of the time. People just aren't talking about it because it is highly stigmatized by the art community.
