Which brings us neatly to why many people are opposed to “AI” and automation.

We’re automating away the pleasurable work and leaving the drudgery for humans, when it should be the other way around.

Robots should be toiling while humans create art and music and whatever else they desire.

AI image generation doesn’t “democratize” art. Art has always been available to everyone. Anyone can learn to make art. AI image generation devalues artists and robs everyone else of the desire to learn art skills themselves.
