    It’s a bit long, but one of my favorite authors recently gave a keynote speech that focuses on art and AI, and I think it actually holds the answers to your question.

    Basically, you have to learn to find satisfaction and fulfillment in the process of creating the art. Realize that, by creating the art yourself, the art holds a part of you. Your experiences, your perspectives, your soul. No matter how technically perfect AI art becomes, only art that you create yourself will truly be a reflection of you.

    That, and just enjoy the experiential elements of making the art. Whether it’s having fun tinkering with different sounds as you try to write a song, exploring different colors and brushstrokes as you paint, or simply giving yourself time to imagine something truly exciting or meaningful to you as you prepare to write a chapter. The process of creating art has to be fun or you’ll never stick with it.
