You might say that these examples are not analogous because AI is categorically different in that AI can replace the creative act itself. I think AI can only replicate the creative act, and the results might even fool us, but the minute we know a human wasn’t involved, it loses value.

Two issues with this. Firstly, there are an unfortunate number of people who don't actually believe it loses value; they genuinely don't care. Secondly, the insidious bit about genAI is that it grows increasingly difficult to tell whether something was created by it or by a human. If the prompter never discloses that something was made with AI, and it becomes indistinguishable from handmade art, then when does the moment of value loss surface?
