The companies have a vested interest in keeping the hype going as long as possible, so that more and more real artists are forced to quit their career (or their lives) so that people are forced to use the AI art, because there aren't enough human artists around to actually do the necessary work. That way they can control 100% of the art market, instead of just selling another art tool to artists only.

Unfortunately that's very much the state of things, and why capitalism needs to be abolished.
