Yeah I totally get this is the same thing that has happened so many times before. But at least for chess, it was never a practical thing and was a competition. Like how the existence of aimbots does not ruin a game as long as you are playing against other humans.

For art it feels a bit different since it’s not competitive and more a practicality thing. Perhaps art will shift from placing individual strokes on an image and move to making creative directions for AI to resolve in to an image or enable more people to create labor intensive works like animation.
