Seriously. Why the fuck would I want a machine that draws for me? What's next, a machine that pets cats and laughs at jokes so that I can use all my energy towards making profit for our overlords?

You might not, but someone is out there who can't draw, or doesn't want to put the time in to master making the art they want to see, or doesn't want to pay fair rates for labor to put art in their content to make it look pretty for commercial purposes.

Either way, actual human artists are losing their economic leverage to make a living.
