Firstly, it's not art. I already hate that OP called it that. It's AI generated imagery. There is no art involved outside of art theft.

Secondly, it's legal art theft created by those types of people that either never considered artists to have any value, or have a chip on their shoulder against artists.

Thirdly, at no point in history have artists ever been appreciated, despite art being the most important element of everything. Imagine right now what a user interface would look like without artistic design. Or a car. Or your toothbrush. AI gen shafts artists... again... with the absolutely ridiculously, flippant argument that it "democratises art", as if it's some sort of noble privilege rather than a skill literally anyone can practice.

i'm not only referring to images, but all kind of "art" that can be music, imagery, etc.

The same can be applied to all artistic mediums. But it's arguably used most for generating text and images.
