Applied artist will need to adapt. I guess applied arts will move more towards editorial tasks. That's how technological advancement works - driving horse carriages was a job once. Like again CGI made a lot of classical applied jobs obsolete and people had to adapt or find a niche where their skill is still needed.

The bigger problem is who own AI and who profits from it. But that is a question we as society have to face and answer.
