art/fine art, will only be at risk when ai learns to physically paint or interact with the world. I think it needs to actually use a paint brush. Pictures of paintings are never the same as seeing them in person. They just can't be captured the same way. Ai is being trained on photographs of these physical paintings.

a lot of art isn't always so much about the technique but the content. ai might make the gap from beginner and crap to pleasing to look at in a technical sense, but that doesn't mean the art it self will be interesting or meaningful.

if you really think art as a whole is at risk of being destroyed by ai you should go to your nearest high quality museum and really think if ai would make that. i know like half the posters are in the bay area lol, go to sf moma this weekend and think about this.
