If genAI ever becomes a norm in entertainment, who would autograph the merch? A computer can't autograph collectables. Would kids raised by AI ever learn to draw themselves? I wrote so many essays in middle school about Akira Toriyama and animating, would future kids ever feel inspired like that? - ThreadSky

neither would whoever is owning that particular model, AI generated content is automatic public domain, so nobody can claim ownership

I hope it doesn't get mainstream. These fears sound unfounded to most, but I understand why you have them. I would be wary too. Though, if I'm honest, we will always have artists and writers, even if they're in different mediums.

That's true. I don't think it's something that'll happen in the super immediate future during our lifetimes at least, I've just noticed that overall society and especially companies tend to trend towards doing the laziest things possible over time.

Here's another thing that I hope can comfort you: Humans can be really smart at times. We can see through the soullessness of AI. When it comes to genuine human contact, it will always resonate differently and thus, will always be preferred over AI or artificiality

That is a good point!

While there's a rise in AI, there's also a rise in loneliness and isolation. Only human connection can fix it. AI only makes it worse. If anything can ease your concerns, let it be the fact that humanity craves connection because we're a social species, even if our social levels are different.

It’s not going to be a norm!

Sure hope not, I can only imagine the horror of watching Nickelodeon in the year 3000 and they're playing the ten millionth episode of Uncanny-Valley-1000-Finger-BobSponge.

We do not want that
