    I really enjoyed reading this. It made me think about how this perspective might change over time.

    I agree about the points about elitism in creative fields – there will probably always be some resistance to new tools and techniques like AI-generated art. But will that always be the case? It's possible that AI tools for artists could become so commonplace that they're expected — leading to entirely new and unforeseen styles and forms of expression.

    Your points about authenticity and transparency also really resonated with me. Perhaps people will start to seek out and value art that's verifiably human-made or AI-free? Or maybe we'll see a greater emphasis on proving the authenticity of digital works?

    In either case, we need to expose the grifters and ensure that traditional artists get the recognition and rewards they deserve. A world without original artists would be a far less vibrant and inspiring place.
