That happened to musicians years ago. "Laptop bands" were once a joke, and now they're normal. Celebrity DJs now get more attention than most musicians, and most of what DJs now do is semi-automated.

This annoys lower-tier boomer musicians, for whom Being In A Band was a big deal. That died when there were several million bands listed on Myspace.

I haven't met many artists who think that way, if anything, they work extremely hard for almost nothing at all(although that has often been the case through history). Almost no one goes into the arts to make money, some do happen to find it. But the arts evoke a very human part of ourselves, and when that is replaced with unending generated content by a computer, have fun living in a society exclusively consisting of corporate drones and homeless people.
