I don’t know if you are the OOP but the person who wrote this should consult a therapist.
They think their problem is that ai is capable of creating similar or better art, but the issue of the paranoia against governments and tech devices is the bigger issue.
I think the trouble with ai is just a projection surface for paranoid issues.
Please consult a mental health professional.
Im sorry for misreading your post regarding ai. The point I wanted to make was paranoia around gov, tech devices and such.
The ai topic is displacing importance for the paranoia.
Please try to put more energy into finding a therapist than into the ai/human art topic.
