I mean it's like this- Humans make things to make their life easier, and to do things they aren't capable of. You wouldn't prefer a man with a file make a tight tolerance part over a CNC machine would you? It's the same thing. For all of us who aren't artists, it's a Godsend. If I make a Quake or Xonotic map and want some pictures on the walls of a house I'm going to generate them with Stable Diffusion. I'm certainly not going to attempt it myself, nor am I going to pay someone to make them for my free mod for an old game. Are there humans who can do better? Probably. Art is subjective. Most people are astounded by what simply owning a GPU can let you create from nothing more than words nowadays.
No, just an artist.
