RE: How The Art World Is Changing

Art is a very subjective topic. People buy things which move them. The question is will they spend money on works that were not created by humans but, rather, AI "artists"? Will people care how it was created when it is hanging in their living rooms?

History has the habit of repeating itself. Let's go back a couple of centuries in time and see how art and artists were appreciated back then. August Rodin for example had been rejected by exhibition organisers for years, disrespected by the society for being bold and presenting the naked human body as it is in reality. They had considered back then that that's not in line with what sculptors should do and had been considered shameful. He had to struggle for years to get recognition along with many others. Painters we highly appreciate today had been living in misery, selling their art for a piece of bread because they had tried to bring something new in the art world. Musicians as well.

A part of the artworks so popular and valuable today (talking about millions here) are not liked by many as artwork but greatly appreciated still as they have great monetary value, due to various reasons. One single painting can worth millions and there's only one of each.

Now with artificial intelligence and digital art, things are different, as you said you can create many edition of the same painting and there's also authenticity concerns as it can be most likely copied (I don't see why not).

AI art creation is still at the beginning, people still have to understand and learn to value digital art but we'll get there. In a good few years you'll see the change in people's mentality and the rise of value. There's a transitional process that can take some time but we're going to get there.

Will one digital painting worth millions? I can't answer that question, time will tell.
