Why This Award-Winning Piece of AI Art Can’t Be Copyrighted::Matthew Allen’s AI art won first prize at the Colorado State Fair. But the US government has ruled it can’t be copyrighted because it’s too much “machine” and not enough “human.”

Ultimately, artists, professionals and managers are going to have to face the same concern the bottom-rung laborers have, which is they are on the chopping block to be made obsolete through automation, and the capitalists are eager to do this ASAP in order to reduce costs.

Copyright doesn't serve artists anyway, rather it serves the owners of the studios and record labels and publishing houses. Most artists get paid a pittance for their work with a few rare exceptions.
