I feel like AI art will become so saturated that we’ll start turning to teenagers on deviant art to do $5 commissions

    I agree that humans are going to like human-made art better. Well, at least educated humans.

    But I think the conclusion does not work. The feeling of saturation will stay, but the amount of generated “art” won’t be reduced by it, and so the demand for human-made art will remain small.

      Enjoyment of art is subjective and not generally related to education level or even awareness of art being generated by AI or not. Is someone likes something, they like it.

      If you like green circles and I like blue squares and we are both self-aware and confident enough to understand our own feelings, there is not much education that could change our feelings. Education may change our respect and appreciation for other forms of art, but it should rarely change our preferences unless there is something extremely relatable I lean about your green circles. (There are thousands more conditions that might shift my opinions. Education is just a single variable, is my point )

      Edit: My use of caveats was intended to be extremely liberal in this particular case. Opinion and preference can be extremely dynamic.

        Maybe you misunderstand the point. It is not about whether you like green circles, but it’s about whether you prefer human-made green circles to generated green circles. I say that educated people know that difference better, and therefore that preference will be stronger among them.
