People used to pay lots of money to digital artists for various tasks. Now generative models like stable diffusion can do many of those things, just as graphic design. This is resulting in people paying less to artists.

I get that and there are a lot of jobs that people used to pay for and no longer do.

The entire horse industry has mostly collapsed. I couldn't get a job as scribe. With any luck, all the industries around fossil fuel will go away. We're going to pay less to most people in those industries too.
