Yes, unfortunately. I have met people that love AI videos (my in-laws being the closest to my bubble) and defend them as enjoying creativity.

Many people with niche and nostalgic tastes loved that music AI that got sued to oblivion recently.

For the record, I revile both as well. But for every person eating salad, there’s someone subsisting on McDonalds.

Okay, AI videos, whatever, people are stupid. But that's not art, and it's not music. People in my circles (art-adjacent) immediately bounce off AI images and music.

Yeah, well, people in my circles are too cultured to have even heard of YouTube and Instagram, they listen to only the finest torrented FLACs that you have to download via special VPN, otherwise the bits download funny and you can really hear it, but only if you have good speakers made from the wood of an extinct evergreen tree that really brings out the harmonics.
