In case that happened then the rest of the world would probably appreciate the art, and a subset of it, the artist (and even a small subset of ~whole Internet-connected population is a lot of people). Some silver lining, perhaps.

Perhaps.

I like the idea that a piece of art, in addition of ultimately ending up as pixels on my screen, is also a window into a world that has been dreamt up by real human imagination, driven by their hopes and fears.

Semiconductors based generation may give me the first part, but not the second.

I'm speaking for myself here, I agree with your point though.

What art?

We’re talking about generated pictures, aka slop, not art made by a real human.

And I don’t know if you’ve been paying attention but people seem to be pretty tired of the slop. I don’t think it would be appreciated nearly as much as you think.
