I think the analogy to photography works very well, in that it’s a lot easier than the workflow that it replaced, but a lot harder than it’s commonly seen as. And yeah, it’s great using a tool that lets me, in effect, graft the lower half of the artistic process to my own brain. It’s a preview of what’s coming with AI, imo—the complete commodification of every cognitive skill.
