How many artists are you friends with? I know a fair number, and a minority are able to survive off their artwork alone.

i think that's just true of most things for most people at this point.

Regardless, i still think art is one of the few places where people will pay for nice art just to have the human experience portion of the art. Like being able to shit it out of an AI is cool, but it will never compare to a proper commission.
