Looking at EDM, the sheer amount of bedroom musicians capable of producing that poped up since the 90s is part of the reason why it has become so hard to make any money from your art.

Very real and pertinent example. Being big in EDM now is 100% about being a constant networker. You have to go to every party, know every person and have a massively professional social media presence and a conisistent flashy image to have any success. This will be accelerated in AI, actually turning being a musician into a ridiculously demanding amalgamation of many many different jobs... or just a game of having enough money to know people already and have employ a PR army.
