Real or unreal

AI? That's a subject that is certainly gaining more and more traction. For all you know I could have used an AI generator to make this article. I haven't and you'll have to take my word on that but for sure the image you'll see with this article has been AI generated.

There will be a lot of naysayers saying it is bad, evil and the end of us all. There will be those that say it'll end of creativity and we are all entitled to our own voice and like everything we make our choice too.

From where I sit AI is a tool and it's down to the individual to do with it as they will. I have to say I've found it very useful and do you think I could have generated such an image as you see below. It would have been a little stick bird floating above a stick flower for such is the limit of my artistic endeavours. Yet, the result below I hope is aesthetically pleasing.

We seem to have little choice but to adapt to this rapidly advancing technology. I will and have and yet will still retain my creative angle. Some may say, don't use the image generators but do they not get your attention? I can almost guarantee that if I were to use just words or a stock photo, the posts I put out would be summarily ignored and give way to those who have.

My choice is to use it as a tool to genuinely help. I recognise and respect those who do not share that point of view. That therein right there is the beauty of who we are. We can make our choice and let us carry that thought forward.
