Art is already democratized. It has been for decades. Everyone can pick it up at zero cost. Even you!
The poorest people have historically produced great art. Training a model, however? Expensive. Running it locally? Expensive. Paying the sub? Expensive.
Nothing is being democratized, the only thing this does is devaluing the blood and sweat people have put into their work so FAANG can sell it to lazy suckers.

Time is not a zero cost thing, and especially not for the poorest people.
then it won't be art anymore, it'll just be mountains of shit
sorta like what the laptop did for writing
This is a good point. There hasn’t been any writing since the release of the Gateway Solo in 1995
