I look at these works of art created by artificial intelligence and I think: yes, it's beautiful, yes, it's good, but... What's the point? Where's the story, where's the work, if everything is so simple, then what's the point? It's no better than a store where you come and buy, although no, you come, take everything you need for free and leave. I don't see any value in it, it's just boring.

I see. Companies behind the AI models won't see any of my money since I insist on free and self-hostable options and I'd opt for commissions from human artists if I need something better than my computer can generate. But not everyone will be like that and I understand where your concern comes from.

Well, I guess you're right.
