There is a big difference between supporting someone and buying stuff from someone with the intent to exploit each other as much as possible.
by paying less and getting more. If we operate on this principle where customer and producer are enemies there will be no community or support of any kind
we will only have community or artists who bitch about customers and pirates discussing how to make those fuckers pay more by using various techniques and community of consumers who will be brainstorming ideas on how to get more and pay less.


If you want support, you have to change that situation and change relationship style from enemies to friends.



Speaking about the purpose of AI, it is not created to eliminate humans but to remove any requirement for special skills that you usually need to create artwork or music. With AI everyone becomes an artist, composer and whatever else they want to be so this specialty becomes obsolete.
This changes the basic principle so that producer and customer exchange places, now you make art not so much to please the customer but to express yourself. Now the consumer is providing service to you by consuming what you produce or else nobody will care about all that stuff you make.
Instead of community where fans worship some demigod who can draw now, everyone can make their own work and share with each other using their art as a form of language of advanced communication.

imagine if instead of text roleplay you could just make all those scenes as quick as you can type. or if you could easily express complex ideas with pictures or video that you make during the conversation.
