Yup! And an excellent example (IMHO) [confession — I have also had to take meeting notes and hate it] of using AI for tedious crap and not as a creative substitute.

I will also confess to using AI image generators a LOT for illustrations for my posts. Yes, I realize that the results are based on theft of human-created images available online. But spending 15 minutes combing through open license images, then settling for something that isn’t great but I need to get on with my life… versus 20 seconds to get four illustrations based on my long-winded prompt? (Plus another minute removing the second thumb from a hand… wait, who does that hand even belong to? Erase the hand… arm, erase the arm.) Time better spent.

But I am working with a human artist to illustrate my story for kids, because AI image generators SUCK at character continuity (among other things). Not to mention that humans ask things like, “So, are gargoyles non-binary? Shouldn’t they be? Why don’t I draw him — sorry, THEM — that way?” 💡
