It's really impressive at generating "out of this world" kind of stuff but so far I haven't seen anything impressive by its own.
IMHO this is because the AI isn't actually an intelligence and doesn't have any context and that's why the only amazing stuff it can do on its own is the "out of this world" since we too don't have a context for it so we can buy it.
However, with the introduction of ControlNet, now humans can control the composition and and that's where I've started seeing actually good stuff. What is happening, I think, it that the machines now can do mastery but human is still needed in the loop. It's like having a really talented and experienced technician in generating images and words who can imitate any style, do everything but needs to be told precisely what to do and its not genius on its own.
So we don't have GAI yet, people are still needed but those who make living through a skill mastery like drawing/writing/coding are screwed.
