The flip side is that AI being able to create art democratizes art so that anyone with an idea can execute it.

Is having a for-profit company intermediating and generating all art really "democratizing" it?

AFAIK "democratizing" something doesn't simply mean "makes it easier". That ease is also only temporary. Once you're thoroughly deskilled and dependent upon it, that's when the subsidies will end.
