GenAI is the best thing to happen to art.

Here you have a tool that can transfer almost exactly what is in your mind into some form. Isn’t that what any tool is? I view cameras in the same way. So too a paint brush.

To the unimaginative, AI is soulless. But to others, it opens doors and allows things that were previously not possible. I’m no longer restricted by my tools like with paintbrush - I can transmit my exact creative thoughts and get a picture out of it.


What does the generated picture have that wasn't in the prompt that you gave it? Why don't you just express yourself with the prompt?

it doesn't have the other 100 times i tried the prompt to which i said no to
