I have yet to prove by myself how far human assisted these things are, but it makes wonder if we are at the beginning for some kind of digital succubus.
Maybe the (fake or not) time traveler who said we would be governed by some Artificial neural network will be right.

For now, AI is a tool, it doesn't have its own will. It for example synthesizes images based on prompts and what it had learned. Artists create paintings because they want to. AI is more like a camera than a person and invention of the camera did not cause all artists to lose their jobs.

Basically this, it's more appropriate to liken it to an automated photoshop using a well trained combination of smudge brushes and layering tools. While this one is pretty good, some even from this artist (and they are an artist on their own) have some more obvious disfunctions as a result of AI not realizing that humans cant' look in two different directions at once (A key failure of AI art right now is that many portrait pieces don't have both of their eyes focusing on the camera even when staring straight at it.)

No, but there aren't exactly a ton of people lining up to get their portrait painted these days, either. And the invention of radio and records led to a pretty significant dip in demand for live music performers. Once the kinks are ironed out I wouldn't be surprised if AI-generated art started eating up a lot of the commissioned art market, at the minimum.

I think this picture might be an example of that, is it just me, or is her left eye (from our perspective) pointed a little too far left?
A really good use of AI is the lighting and colors. Getting reference photos with the right colors and feel is difficult enough. AI like Midjourney makes this much easier.
