    No AI will ever turn an idea into a picture better then taking pencil/paintbrush/pen in hand doing it yourself. The best you can get is “yeah that’s close enough to what I was Invisioning” the computer doesn’t know what you are thinking, and a description, no matter how in depth, can ever take what you have in mind and perfectly create it. AI is doing it’s interpretation of what you ask for. And plus, the AI isn’t an art tool, if anything, it’s the artist. The prompt whiter is just the one commissioning it.

      If you aren’t artistically talented, whether through lack of ability or through disability, then AI is significantly better at turning an idea into existing art than using a pencil/paintbrush/pen

        Stop with the excuses. art is a skill that requires practice. if you don’t put In the practice you won’t be very good, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get good and gain that artistic ability. And go into any art community and ask about doing art with a disability. Half the artist probably have a disability. (If one has a disability the that makes it hard for them to hold a more conventional job, art can actually be a great source of income.) It may be more challenging, but with enough determination and practice, anyone can get good at art.

        It’s not like I’m very good at art either, the best I can do is sketch simple things I can see.

          Mechanical skill at manipulating a tool like a brush is not in any way correlated with artistic talent. Creating and imagining the meaningful concepts and transposing them into reality to convey emotional and intellectual meaning is a reflection of artistic quality. Not how good someone is at drawing. If AI can empower person’s to transposing their ideas into reality then it should be encouraged and widely adopted

            Ok, creativity is also something you can practice and get better at. I funny that in the first part, you mention creating art with “emotional and intellectual meaning” and then still support AI “Art” that lacks much of that.

              Creativity isn’t the same thing as drawing or painting or whatever. Being mechanically gifted at manipulating an instrument to produce certain output isn’t reflective of one’s creativity. There are plenty of very creative people who are bad at drawing etc. Ai art empowers those people to transform their ideas into reality

                Now you are just arguing in circles. All it takes is practice. And if they truly don’t want to do the work themselves, working with an artist can be a very rewording experience. Will hiring an artist cost money? Yes, but then you get to directly support the people making your idea come to fruition. Instead of using AI that steals those artists work to train it’s algorithm and does nothing to support artist.
