I think dismantling creative fields like this is completely different from automating manual labor in a way that makes humanity more prosperous. I don't see what the upside is of this -- it's not making creative work better, it's devaluing creative work and disenfranchising creatives.


What makes creative labour better and more deserving of protection than manual labour?


> I don't see what the upside is of this

The upside is that creative works are completely democratized.

Now, anyone, with very little effort is fully empowered to create creative works on their own and there is no barrier to entry.

Yes, empowerment and democratization harms people who's livelyhood depends on disenfranchisement.
