That may be true philosophically speaking, but people have spent a lifetime perfecting crafts/techniques that are now commodified by a robot, thereby displacing them in the job market. So if you ask the question "did AI make the artists lives better", the answer is a bit nuanced depending on the criteria. From a financial perspective it definitely disrupted their ability to make a living on something they sunk a bunch of time into because the market is now flooded with cheap imitations that require no human touch.
