This seems deeply, disturbingly fucked up. "Fuck working with real people, who have their own goals and desires out of a career, we're just gonna use an AI since no one can tell the difference." It's fucked up on multiple levels, not least since the fashion industry was already full of broken people before AI hit the scene.

was already full of broken people before AI hit the scene.

so why not take the people out of the equation?

Because broken as they are, people still come first before AI. Or they should, anyway.

Should we want them to be though? If it's obviously caused a lot of harm to many people?
