Overheard a dev say AI art doesn't need human input anymore
I was grabbing coffee near my office in Austin last Tuesday and heard two guys talking at the next table. One of them said 'AI art is basically self-sufficient now, you just feed it a prompt and it does everything.' I wanted to jump in so bad but I kept quiet. My takeaway is that people still don't understand how much curation and tweaking goes into getting good results from models like Stable Diffusion or Midjourney. Has anyone else run into folks who think AI just magically spits out perfect images every time?

3500 prompts a week deep and I still delete half my outputs.

Heard someone say recently that the key is knowing when to trust the output versus when your gut says something's off. 3500 prompts is insane volume though, I usually hit that in a week but only keep about a third of it. Your deletion rate sounds about right for anyone who's been doing this long enough to know good from bad. What's the main reason you end up deleting half these days?
