1) That is a tiny share of the market. Most of the market is - I have a game / online publication / book, and I need an illustration xyz. Which this AI seems to solve.
2) how do you even prove your rare art wasn't painted by an AI?
1) Sure there's a lot of work for that kind of thing but creatives typically earn a pittance. I doubt an AI could meet your specific requirements without having to spend hours(?) tweaking it or sifting through countless variations for the 'one'.
2) Because we haven't built a machine that can paint (etc.) with traditional materials like a skilled artist?
Maybe everyone will have an AI image as their desktop wallpaper, but if you've got cash you'll want something with provenance and rarity to brag about.
Also, I think creatives are valued for their imagination. If you wanted something decent, would you pay someone to sift through a million AI generated images to find a gem, or just pay an artist you like to create one for you?
