Are Robots Stealing Artists' Jobs? Here's What a Robot Told Me.

​It's no secret that the rise of technology has had a major impact on the workforce. In recent years, we've seen everything from office jobs to manufacturing jobs being automated by machines. But what about jobs that require a human touch, like those in the art world? Are robots starting to steal artists' jobs? Let's take a closer look.
 
The truth is, robots have been stealing artists' jobs for years—just not in the way you might think. You see, whenever a new technology emerges, there are always those who are quick to adopt it and those who resist change. When digital cameras first came out, for example, there were plenty of professional photographers who clung to film because they felt it was the only way to produce "true" art. But eventually, even the most resistant filmmaker had to concede that digital was the way of the future. And so it is with robots in the art world.
 
There will always be a need for human artists as long as there is a need for emotion and creativity in art. However, just as digital cameras made film photography obsolete, so too are robots making traditional methods of art obsolete. For example, consider 3D printing. This technology is already being used by artists to create everything from sculptures to jewelry. And as 3D printers become more sophisticated and less expensive, we can only expect this trend to continue. In other words, while robots may be stealing some artists' jobs, they're also creating new opportunities for those who are willing to embrace change.
 
So, are robots really stealing artists' jobs? It's hard to say. What we can say for sure is that they're changing the landscape of the art world—and that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Just as digital photography opened up new opportunities for artists, so too will new technologies like 3D printing. The key is to embrace change and use it to your advantage. After all, that's what all great artists have done throughout history.
