Therefore, almost anyone can create art and it will help individuals who have a difficult time creating unique ideas as their thoughts can be generated within seconds.  I believe this is a great idea for businesses that can not afford to employ an artist or graphic designer. Due to AI art being so easy to create there has been an uprise in the new market. You can find AI art being sold on Etsy, Amazon, and AI ArtShop.

      Social media has become very influential in every aspect of life as many users have found themselves on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, and Pinterest. Now all of these platforms offer the opportunity to list ads. Ads are essential for businesses as they are one way to quickly grab a viewer's attention; the more views the ad receives the more revenue can be attained. Social media is constantly growing and it is becoming a very popular way to market a business.       Small business owners and freelancers benefit from social media by being able to expose themselves to different target markets.
