Yeah. And forget images or comics, what happens when AI can make a furry TV show, even if it has to be steered by an individual? Its not that far away, all the pieces are there. How do oldschool artists possibly compete with that, even if the AI quality is questionable?
I'm just frustrated society isn't ready for this. Someone who made useful stuff for others, for years, shouldn't have to worry about having a roof over their head when automation is so rampant.
