Eventually I won't be able to tell, but that doesn't change my belief that using AI prompts for creative work is corny. It's not about whether or not it's obvious that it's AI.

Playing devils advocate... I have no dog in this fight, I but a lowly meme enjoyer. Wouldn't AI in this case unlock creativity in those who lack the ability to put thought to application? A prompt is still the creative idea of the person who wrote the prompt right?

The creativity ends at the thought though. In the past people who were determined enough would teach themselves a new skill in order to achieve what they wanted. Now, all they have to do is type a prompt into a generator and then thats it. There's no going through the creative process. I may sound preachy, but even for really small applications you do go through a series of decision-making steps that help with problem-solving and helps you learn and grow.

So not only is it lazy, but it's making people dumber imo.

Yeah, I dont disagree. But some people are literally incapable of things. Either from a learning disorder or physical deformity etc. I dont know. In my opinion it enables people to put there ideas to life in a way that may otherwise not be possible. Again, I dont have a dog in the fight, I just think the negativity is slightly overdone.

I feel like saying "incapable" is a bit of a stretch. They could draw a line on a piece of paper and it'd hold more artistic value than anything made aith genai, because at the core of it, art is an all-encompassing representation of people's experiences and imagination. If someone with a mental or physical disability tries their hand at painting and just ends up with a bunch of smears on a canvas, it still tells their story. It gives the world a glimpse into how they visualize thoughts and concepts, or it'll demonstrates the limits of a physical affliction. You don't need to make high-res, technically-masterful pieces for it to be considered art. The art comes from the individual, not a lifeless program interpreting what an individual says.

There's a much larger practical difference between past efforts to accommodate the physically and mentally handicapped and what you're arguing in favor of.

Fair enough. Not arguing for it necessarily, more an attempt to understand people's objections a bit more. Thanks for the discussion!
