I think we’re done here. I wish you well — I’m going to move on and talk to other people. Bye.

Very interesting comment, thanks for your time. I do “get” that a masterpiece has a whole story and context behind it — I’m not disputing that Van Gogh, Shakespeare, and Beethoven will still be revered for centuries to come.
I think this AI poses a much more direct threat to people lower in the art world’s pyramid than world-class geniuses — jobbing creative designers, for example, should be concerned and should take the challenges posed by AI more seriously than I think many of them do. A lot of art is absolutely created to have generic pretty things to put in your house.
I dispute the assumption many of the commentators made that they could easily distinguish AI and human art.

I don't think people are "waiting to be woken" -- I'm just surprised the technology is so quickly dismissed.
The people commenting on this article are a wide range of people, as wide a range as I'm likely to be able to access in one place. They are not a monolithic block. And judging by the quality of some of the language people have used in the comments, many of them are clearly highly educated and intelligent.

Lots of great content in that comment, thank you! I appreciate your perspective — the art world isn’t something I know as much about as you clearly do.
My job involves text production — and that’s a world that absolutely is just starting to become aware of the tsunami that’s coming. The speed that the AI is improving is absolutely incredible — and, perhaps because I’m not an expert, I see no reason why the artistic AIs can’t also rapidly improve.
