If you're a professional artist who's invested years of effort in learning photoshop and it replaces "literal days of work" or you run company and it replaces "literal team members" $40-$100 a month is cheap.

If not you can use something cheaper - or use one of the 3rd party plugins. If the workflows become popular, the 3rd party plugins will get better.

No kidding. I have only negative things to say about Adobe, but that is a terrible argument. $100 a month to replace multiple $100k/year employees? That's basically the definition of technological advancement freeing labor to be more productive elsewhere.

the definition of progress. In IT we should be used to this. AI has been telegraphing its arrival for a long time. There should be no surprises to see jobs being lost in the name of tech advancement. Its been going on since forever. It is literally what computers do.
