But sometimes you're restricted by your own imagination and the image produced reflects your desire stronger than your vision. The ability to consistently generate meaning and purposeful images with generative ai is an art in itself. It's just a different medium for artists to use.

    I've only found that true for days I am prompting without a specific image in mind. The second something specific gets in my head, and even hours of fiddling and tweaking prompts won't get the result that satisfies me (though I might get a bunch of cool tangential output along the way).
