It actually does stop people from the hobby of drawing. Like, emphatically, that is happening.

The value artists provide is eroded by these machines because they are producing much faster (and for new artists, arguably better in the mainstream sense) art.

It's not a mystery... They are stealing art and reproducing it.

Personally, I think it's fucking disgusting and I try to support true art, but this absolutely does inspire many new artists to either give up, or make it with LLM's.
