Well there are many corollaries where fame is needed to promote/reinforce popular recreational industries. Yes we are heading into an era of music where AI is making a significant impact and has not reached its pinnacle. I still believe without true talented idols, the popularity and success of a recreational industry will begin to lose its popularity. Too much parity or a lack of super stars can represent the death of such industries. Take sports & music, you can see the affects of both waning popularity and decline in cycles of change or lack of idols, yet eventually those industries have always rebounded with new youth.
I was watching the Pebble Beach golf tournament just yesterday and found myself losing interest as I hardly recognized any of the names with a few exceptions. Sports needs GOATS just as music needs GOATS or at least LAMBS developing....AI will be utilized for sure, but it is a skill, and skills can never replace talent--and talent is what IMO is revered or enamors fans.

"Sometimes reaching a goal earlier than planned is a great achievement. It shows you have worked hard, pushed ahead and made it happen. However, sometimes reaching a goal far past your original deadline, long after you wanted to complete it, and after the accolades you might once have gotten for the achievement are over, it is an even greater achievement. This shows you never gave up, due to adversity, deficit, criticism and those little life detours that end many dreams and goals. In many ways, this is a reason for even more pride!" -Brian Austin Whitney
