Everywhere. Games, porn, text, articles, music, etc. For the generation that grew up with the internet already existing, this is their epoch moment, lives pre and post generative AIs.
I was thinking the other day that original artworks are going to be far more valued with a glut of AI generated.
Thinking slightly ahead, you can find your absolute favorite artist, and in seconds use their style you love so much to make the family portrait you would never be able to commission them to do. But going forward even more…
It’s just not the same as a print right? Well, thanks to AI being able to learn and determine where brush strokes would land, we take advancements from 3D printers and your desktop painting rig picks up a brush and paints it just as the artist would have.
Then going forward even more.. the artist himself needs some cash and knocks out 100 of these customs while they sleep, signs them, and now they are originals, sort of.
So… verifiable originals are going to be the hot thing. A painting with a video of the artist painting it… but not an AI generated video of course!
Maybe the artist will have to print it on location while you watch.
To me that implies that real animals are scarce; the price is not related to any kind of "artistic realness."
If they said that hand-crafted robotic snakes were more expensive than run-of-the-mill live-bred snakes, that would support your point about artistic realness.

Good luck convincing enough people in the art community to give you data on their process so you can do this. There's definitely enough out there in things like PSD files but the AI community has been so rude and antagonistic to art communities that most of them have a kneejerk hate reaction on any mention of the technology, and rightfully so. AI users and companies have been gleefully abusing artists from day 1.
Why would you assume it would need to be given? If you examine a painting with enough care, you could work out a few brush strokes. Now hand that to an AI that can process everything and come up with a style and how to paint it.
If you are making a thing, there is evidence of how it was made. Patten match enough of it and you’re done.
