And like much of history, artists get a small portion of that money.
Also, a lot of the traditional arts are very hard to monetize. Just ask any animation youtube channel. The biggest fundings are for personalities, not necessarily the art they make nor consume. But I suppose being an influencer is an art in and of itself.
>IMO the people who refuse to use the new tools, or do so unseriously find it hard to fund themselves.
if you're being paid to react to art in an ungenuine way rather than provide your own art, are you still an artist?
Youtube and co. are also big rich people who influence trends. I'm not surprised some people don't want to cease their craft simply to please an algorithm.
