We're a stone's throw from publishers no longer needing illustrators. That job is going to be gone. It'll be the cheapest choice, so the market will make it the only choice.
My children's children are going to have a few classic books that were illustrated by humans, but anything new or reissued won't be.
Magazines, articles, and covers that might have featured human illustration will be gone. It'll be too easy to throw pennies for "draw something topical to article title in the style of artist that appeals to target demographic".
