I think one of the things we'll miss, in what will likely be reduced forums activity, is the miss-es. Poser's (non-Python coding) community has always been quite populated with females, whereas the AI community is very solidly male as far as I can see - with the very rare exceptions proving the rule.

That said, I see Poser and its wealth of royalty-free content as a valuable tool in "guiding" AI image generation to exactly what's wanted in the final image, and consistently so.  Thus they're not really competitors, for anyone with any foresight. The misconception that they are competitors may diminish, if Poser "does a Krita" and integrates AI.
