"Pictures worth a thousand words..." Images illustrate. This piece offers one of the clearest and most understandable illustrations I've seen yet about one tiny aspect of "AI" -- its promise and its threats. Nice job ! Thanks ...

The sticking point with AI, though, is that it can't innovate. There will never be a new style of art, a new technique, without humans first breaking that ground for AI to "learn" from. If we hadn't already established "art deco" and "watercolor" styles, AI couldn't give you anything like it. Maybe the technology will get to that point, but nothing in the current AI models allow for out-of-the-box "thinking". If what you want is something you've seen before, AI is your go-to. If you want something that stands out or is different, I think AI is still very far off from that, if what we currently call AI even can go there.
