Won't AI art become (as it already is to quite a degree) the opposite of "off the rack". It can become as bespoke as you want, and increasingly so as the technology matures. And it'll surely be far more versatile (not to mention fast and cheap) as any individual artist could be.

But traditional, hand-produced art will presumably continue to hold its value, and there might remain a collector's market for new pieces.

And, something that's often overlooked for some reason, hand-made pieces from non-famous, local type artists will surely continue to sell for quite some time, because they're hand-made.

What would it look like if it were competition doing that? How would it be different? And how do you know it’s not competition doing it?

In any case, it’s a false dichotomy man. The idea is that competition drives individuals to do those things. People need incentives and that’s one of them.

You can criticise “capitalism” for all sorts of things, and rightly so in many cases I’m sure. But the basic idea that competition can drive innovation surely isn’t total nonsense, is it?
