Idk bullshit peddler, I can't get with you on this one. Because I think at the end of the day - anything will be seen as "up for grabs" and illustrators will be on the outs like loomers. And while I am somewhat okay with the idea of rug makers (among other loomable items) being antiquated - creativity should not be because it's the pulse of human expression for many and if we lessen it/deny it - I think the whole world will begin to taste like corn-flakes.

I saw this growing up in a way, they took our arts program and nobody really found any way to express themselves and at the end of the day where I grew up very few people ever amounted to much of anything =/! I think expression is needed, and must be safeguarded because you need to feel safe to express and must know that it's a worthwhile venue to venture into. But this is all kinda arm flapping. You can't stop the future and clearly AI is here to stay - so now we've got to work around what we can.

But, by the by - I still love the bs you're putting down =)
