Right, I agree the sentiment isn't new, I'm mostly just trying to explain that way of thinking.
But yeah, the tension between placing a value on doing things just in time vs. reducing the labor by using tools or assets has surely always been there in commercial art.

Agreed. I think it also doesn't help that the AI companies are saying "well they will just get new jobs"
