H.G., it is indeed solely based on the product for me. It is not about the AI itself, I'm completely fine with that. It is simply not ready yet to produce pictures of actual value. I can say that pretty much all AI generations lack something that I would call harmony or function. I just feel it this way, possibly because I had formal exposure to this area. It's a picture merged from thousands of pictures. An approximation. Despite approaching it very closely, there are no real harmonical relations between parts, and if you don't notice it, just see that if you request an AI image of a human, they will have from 3-4 to 7 and possibly even more fingers, a very bizarre phenomenon on the subject which shows that as of today AI still misses many details. My feeling here is solely based on the properties of the shape itself. AI can produce interesting and sometimes unique results, especially with tight prompting, but the image will never look really finished, and, therefore, its value is the value of a sketch. Many artists and other people are fine with that. If that works, then it's okay. This chess piece looks really great, but, there's something that is just left incomplete.

I myself generated many pictures based on works by a single artist that I like. Without the correct prompting, it looked tacky as hell, but when AI seems to have limits in what it does, the results approach the definition of astonishing.
