This is about replacing humans with machines and making more profit. The framing around difficult to work with models is a distraction. The AI problem was always a capitalism problem. And here it is in full swing. Buckle up and brush up on your Ludditism people!
As with AI and shopped imagery and porn, the unrealistic beauty standards problem is about to get ridiculous. There may be a moment coming not too far off where beauty is just not a human thing anymore. Which may be catastrophic (like people can’t have sex with each other anymore) or oddly liberating.

The nice thing about AI is that I can do the same thing. Anyone can do this.

Other modeling companies could use the same AI model, and no one could sue because you can't copyright it!

Why other modelling company? The customer of the modelling company can just do it themselves and completely make modelling companies irrelevant.
