Larian's head writer has a simple answer for how AI-generated text helps development: 'It doesn't,' thanks to its best output being 'a 3/10 at best' worse than his worst drafts (www.pcgamer.com)

It's very funny to me when people say that using AI takes less time. They clearly haven't prompted 10 times for a basic request only for the AI to fail every time.

I have. I use AI. I have been for a while. It's good for very, very basic requests that people have asked for countless times over. It's actually very good at that. For anything else, it's useless.

And what I said above is the exact opposite of literally any creative workflow ever.

    I'll accept the down votes, but I needed a header image for a work doc that showed a map, and in the background the landscape it was mapping - too specific for a stock photo, but it's just window dressing in a mostly internal doc - perfect use case for AI!

    After 45 minutes of prompting I gave up and made it myself in 20 minutes, and used royalty free no credit needed images.

    Man I can't for the life of me get it to generate a proper image that isn't "a cute racoon playing guitar" or some stuff like that.

    I tried using AI filters too, to improve quality (remove motion blur, remove low-light noise, etc) but it never did anything useful either. Upscaling may as well be just a GIMP image scale.

    I don't get it. Either I'm too stupid to use it or it's truly useless.
