I agree with you on the point you made about the intelligence or the lack there of in AI, but I can't draw the connection between the pin up artist and the rise of AI I use Poser since almost 20 years now, creating erotica most of the time. Since the rise of AI I have seen a lot of pictures done with it and it became clear pretty quickly that this pictures are boring and not very original. They all look the same. I do think AI is dangerous because it is a shortcut to circumvent all the hustling with building the skillset an artist needs to create stuff. The other thing is, in my opinion, that AI was trained by grifting material from the internet without asking for permission or even paying the creators of that material. And it is very much likely that this practice will continue if we use AI more often.

But thanks for sharing your thoughts on this topic. 

Creating good art with either AI or Poser takes time and effort in learning how to make the best images. There is a sameness in Poser renders as well, due to the fact that you see so many renders that don't go beyond canned poses and "barely there" clothing. 

I'd love to see more realistic skin textures, more realistic characters, more realistic clothing.
