    AI generated imagery is getting better astonishingly quickly. DALL-E to DALL-E 2 is a huge leap.
    I can see tons of uses for this, not necessarily to replace illustrators or photographers completely just yet but I could see services like getty stock images becoming somewhat obsolete.

    How long have you spent searching image libraries in the past for just what you're looking for? Relying on a huge pool of expensive imagery that getty have collected. Far more efficient to just tell an AI exactly what you want and have it generate something custom and unique for you. Some of the demos I've seen already allow you to specify a certain camera lens type and lighting conditions etc.

    In regards to the comparison to human creatives...isn't it just doing what we have all done in some ways? We've spent a lifetime absorbing and internalising other content and then recalling it and rehashing at will in order to create something new (whether that recall is conscious or not). I don't have a problem with this development, it's incredible to see it progress so quickly.

    I found this article interesting on the subject:

    • yeah, i don't see it ever being an end solution for anything. i used it to its fullest potential in my workflow and 80% of my time was still spent in photoshopscarabin
    • i spent the same amount of time as i normally would on stock images but like only $60 instead of $1000+. just wish they offered much, much higher resolutionscarabin
    • just "feed" those huge stock photo libraries into DALL-E v3?grafician
    • I was generating images last night on MidJourney and some of them had watermarks that were takes on the shutterstock watermark. lolmicrokorg
