I suspect people will argue about whether AIs are truly conscious or just stochastic parrots even as all human-dominated tasks are replaced by AIs.

The AIs will be creating masterwork art and literature personalized for each person better than anything Shakespeare ever wrote or Michaelangelo ever sculpted, but we'll console ourselves that at least we're _really_ conscious and they're just stochastic parrots.

Masterwork is not independent of its time, context, etc. It's hard to say AI will be creating masterwork, especially when focused for each person.

I don't think it will. Art is truth and AI is a golem replicating humanity.

It depends on what you value in art. Some value the only artifact per se; others the story around it. Unfortunately, I don't see too many complaints that image generators have no human artist behind them.

I've yet to see too much art from image generators. For sure content, but not art.
