Exactly. Art as an economic industry may die out. As a career, it may be reduced to a much smaller scope. But we'll always be able to express ourselves artistically - maybe even more so if AI frees up more time in which to do so.
...or enjoy making art with other people to use in our commercial endeavors ?
Like, it might actually be fun to work with creatives to make art. It's one of the areas of my work I actually really enjoy. I can't imagine prompting DALL-E to be as fun and enjoyable, nor would it be "creative".
No, definitely not. It's a sad fact that many people have to do what most of us would consider 'boring' work in our day-to-day lives. Prompting DALL-E may not be 'as creative' as not using it, in the same way that using Photoshop tools might not be 'as creative' as painting with a brush, but that doesn't invalidate either process.
