"I see a bunch of tools for using some preexisting content."

But isn't that exactly what Poser and Studio are about? Use pre-existing content so casual users don't have to create everything from scratch by themselves?

This is the closest native Blender plugin I've seen so far that is directed at hobbyist / casual users.

Yet, you still can harnish all of Blenders modelling and rendering power if you want without having to switch apps. Once they establish a decent content catalog, there is no need anymore for Poser (or Studio).

Already the models look way better than any current native Poser figure and are easily on par with Genesis 9.

The main difference is the "easy to use interface", using sliders just like Poser and Studio.

This is in stark contrast to all the other Blender items that are usually aimed at professionals / very advanced hobbyists.

OTOH, AI is already capeable of creating realistic human 3D meshes from a single photograph!

They are untextured, unrigged OBJ files only ATM.

But how long will it take before a fully textured, fully rigged photorealistic human can be generated with just a few mouse-clicks?

I love Poser, I really do. But the only market niche left I see for it are longtime Poser users who for various reasons are unwilling to switch apps.

Poser is the past. But that's OK with me, as I'm the past, too.

I had lots of fun with it, and I plan on continuing having fun with it as long as I can.

But the real future are Blender and AI.

IMHO.
