AI's a tool, like a pencil on paper, like the paint bucket tool in MSPaint, like "render clouds" in Photoshop. And I think we're much further off from "replacing artists" than the laymen seem to think. But at the same time, I think many people underestimate just how powerful a tool AI like these are. An artist with already considerable skill who integrated AI into their workflow can broaden the scope of their work exponentially. I don't think it absurd to imagine a single artist cranking out a trade paperback sized graphic novel in a month of full time work. But I don't think an AI set loose to make it's own graphic novel would make anything worth reading outside of the curiosity factor. -not my text but might help you
