Every improvement in image generation seems to reduce the value of the images themselves. When anything can be faked or created in seconds, what is an image really worth? With text or code, you can dig into a meaningful dialogue because their reality is digital too. But images become like the plain people to show up photo frames.
Nah I'm gonna generate the hecky out of "relevant for this one presentation" little cliparts to add to my powerpoints.
But then I'm still going to take photos on film and enjoy Sunday afternoons in the darkroom doing prints.
It's possible to compromise and/or use the right tool for the right job. Saving me time for something of little or fleeting importance? AI. Making me feel good/physical work with hands/emotion chemicals in my brain? Film/traditional media.
I guess it's just a completely personal feeling.
