alternatively, you can use AI as a starting point. All design is iterative.
But why? It's not all that much harder to do original work than redrawing the output of an AI.
And then you decide that the “starting point” is good enough because the deadline is looming.
Starting from something basically done might have the same effect as spec music has done for movies.
Has it occurred to you if this tooling was good, you wouldn't need to encourage creatives so hard to use it?
If that Disney Star Wars creature AIslop video was any indication, that starting point is pretty fucking bad.
Sure and limit yourself at the starting point, people underestimate how much limiting these tools are, they're trained a on a fixed set can only reproduce noise from here and there
