In recent months there has been a bit of an explosion in the AI generated art scene.
Ever since OpenAI released the weights and code for their CLIP model, various hackers, artists, researchers, and deep learning enthusiasts have figured out how to utilize CLIP as a an effective “natural language steering wheel” for various generative models, allowing artists to create all sorts of interesting visual art merely by inputting some text – a caption, a poem, a lyric, a word – to one of these models.
[The linked story provides about 3 dozen stunning examples of inputs and generated images as well as an extensive links to resources, preprints, and journal articles.--martyb]

So how long does work for book covers, album covers, office/restaurant/etc, video game artwork, etc have left.
Fine art is probably fine, the intrinsic value is in the fact that the piece was created by a particular artist.
And some applications will need very specific artistic interpretations that will require human artists for a long time yet. But I can see a lot of the work going away replaced by 'serviceable' AI compositions generated in a few minutes time based on keywords by someone in marketing.

Well you know what they say 'When automation takes over we can all become artists'
Guess we will all be starving artists

They will provide the training materials for the AI. Don't do this.

"Art" will move into the spaces. As long as there is human despair. Imagine a world filled by AI art and McDonalds Happy Meals. These are not happy people.

I'm waiting to see the DeviantArt/FurAffinity/et.al. "Commissions"... an easy $350 for typing the sucker's description of their online avatar into one of these free-to-use Notebooks.
