I used to have this mindset too-machine learning making art easy to make and better- but artists perform by passion, not by obligation. that makes a big difference.

I'm using AI art too but I also have in my possession a traditional art that shattered my illusions about real art. I've been in art galleries, modern art is boring. It's lazy. Amateur fan art is completely different, you may think it's made for clout-no! They create with passion and seeing something so complex, so strange when you look at it, it's smiling and it's different.

I don't think AI will be able to generate anything like that for at least a decade or more. I think you need to be humble.
