Less serious, but this reminds me of how before stable diffusion was consistently useful, there were artists who made a sizeable Patreon income on anime characters in 'realistic' style. Unfortunately that seems to have been one of the styles that got trained into models the best and now their good work is associated with cheap looking art, and not through any fault of their own.
All the way down this kind of genai has weird impacts I guess.

I think the two way nature of the relationship between the impacts of a tool on humans and the impact of humans on the way the tool develops is a particularly weird little phenomenon that exists these days. It's overall fascinating.
