jokes aside, i think that machine art is going to basically just replace clip art and the like. it's like what happened to pottery. there are still artisinal potters (i love handmade pottery and the craft itself) but for everyday dinner plates you don't seek the connection and craftsmanship. you just need a plate.
some art has use-value as decoration (easily replaced with machines) and other art is about personal, emotional, or political communication (even if it could be replaced, it wouldn't be.)
ai art is art because people are mad about it.
