I sympathize with artists too, but to a point. I predict that:

1. AI art will overtake human art eventually; that is human art jobs will be mostly replaced. Day to day art (e.g. ads, illustrations, decorations, billboards etc) will likely be AI generated.
2. Human art will become something akin to a home cooked meal in a sea of fast food art. This might actually make some artists famous and rich.
3. Humans will continue to learn art, but more as a pastime/hobby/mental exercise.

Well, they should prepare for a crapton of new datacenters to be built there. 😂
