this is part of the reason why the blunt anti-AI movement pisses me off. It lets those of us who didn’t get to dedicate a bunch of time to mastering visual arts to get an OK representation of an idea made. Not all of us have commission money.
The greater impact, how it’s used etc are valid points of argument. But it’s nice to see some interesting ideas rendered well, and it’s nice to be able to put in stupid ideas and see them made. And not all of it is draining oceans and making people homeless.
Indeed, AI art empowers non-artists to explore areas they otherwise wouldn’t. Not everyone has the money or social connections to hire an artist every time they want to try something out.

Yeah, it’s probably best to focus on the positives. The AI box has been opened, and there’s no closing it back up, even if we wanted to.
I asked AI if it was Pandora’s Box and it said no.
Side note that I find hilarious: predictive text on my phone keeps suggesting “Pandora’s Door” for whatever reason
Well I’m sure it wouldn’t lie about that. What a relief!
I know how to close it, but it won’t be pretty (or easy)
Edit: it involves fried potatoes, ranch dressing & bolt cutters

I think that everybody has access to a pencil and paper. And if you don’t, then you have much bigger problems.
