    Do programmers not program because the machine converted their code to machine language? Same with AI art, it’s a growing skill to create prompts. They are not equal in difficulty but are the same idea.

      Writing prompts is guessing how other people described images. I think it’s a lot closer to being good at trivia than taking a photo

        Writing prompts isn’t all it takes to produce quality content. It also takes understanding of how the entire process works, which samplers to use, dimension ratios, prompt weighting, don’t forget that there’s technically 2 positive and 2 negative prompts (4 total) which do things a bit differently from each other.

        There’s also model considerations, any advanced techniques like LoRas, controlnet, etc.

        Downplaying the other side only ever hurt your sides argument when it comes for the others to make their case.

            And yet somehow photographers are still mad at AI users and are posting comments about how people will lose their photography job to something that “isn’t photography”

            Please help me understand your logic.

              Why would anyone hire a photographer to capture something for them when they could spend 2 hours on Midjourney for free?
