"AI flooding the market with new derivative works" sounds nice if you are the consumer.

Now that we can finally have lots of amazing things almost for free, should we create artificial scarcity to protect the existing business models?

It’s potentially nice for the consumer. If I could get personalised audio and video content created on demand for me, that would be pretty amazing. But it does disincentivise people from creating content rather than just consuming it, and I think that could end up taking away a lot of the magic from life.
