>since the mimickry will never be truly perfect (same is true about AI)
AI can often outperfrom the original artist in mimicry abilities.
The best example is SamdoesArts, whom many Dreambooth trainers deliberately practice on.
The latest SDA models are completely indistinguishable from the actual Sam, and often the images look better.
Now, not every artist can be mimiced so easily. Sam made himself an easy target because he only draws female-anime-pinups, which is trivially done by AI.
For artists like Mai Yoneyama, there do exists Dreambooths, and the dreambooths do look very pretty (see attached pic), but are still far below her standard.

But nevertheless, artists like Mai are extremely rare, you need extremely exceptional skills in composition, action, anatomy to consistently beat the AI. Most artists just can't beat the AI on a technical level, if they can now, they won't be in a years time.

In the future, artists will just have to move to comics and AI assisted animation en masse, as AI finds long-form-storytelling far more difficult than single images.
