Another way to think of A.I. is
Automated Inference.
Now no it won't be A.I. like Chat GPT where you just tell it something and out pops a finished sculpt. the process will be iterative. No a sculptor will not need to fix fingers because the serious output isn't anything like the weird stuff making headlines.
A model could be trained on several depictions from comics of say Neal Adams' Batman. Then it could generate a 3D model. A modeler/sculptor could then pose the model. Additional passes will refine the 3D models.
Statues will achieve a likeness to the source material that we can't even imagine.
The tech is just too new and has too high a barrier to entry for little statue producers to wield yet. There are no off the shelf programs making vast use of A.I., again yet.
Most sculptors can't even get a scale correct between sculpts. They have their visual ability but not the math/programming chops it requires right now. And if they do have both they are busy working somewhere else making much more bank than silly statue sculpting.
Most of what us collectors here want to collect are pop culture characters that resembles our perception based on our memory of previous media whether 2D or 3D. Not so much the lofty artistic expression cited as a reason to preserve artists' financial income.
Anyone with a talent that few people posses believe they are entitled to make a living solely using that talent. Just watch the countless singing "talent" shows to see that there are LOTS of people with the ability but no not everyone is going to be making a living at it no matter how hard they work. Sorry you'll have to be fighting us talentless losers for what ever meager regular jobs remain.
The debate about limiting technology for art is an old hat. People said the same thing about photography, copy machines, and music recordings how it would be the death of art. There are a greater percentage of people drawing and making music than at any time in human history. A.I. will just be another tool. Yes a revolutionary one unlike any other but a tool nonetheless.
