AI won’t make artists redundant because you don’t pay an artist for a picture in the first place, you pay them for their creativity, their ideas, which may eventually result in a picture. You know, their artistry. Too many artists devalue themselves and their livelihood by defining their work as entirely mechanical, entirely defined by their material product. Art is more than just produce. You’d think artists would be the first to say that.

The value in artist is their skill in realizing their creativity. I can be creative too but but sure as hell I can't paint it.
