I often do have a clear image in my mind for an article. I can not draw it and I don't have the budget to hire someone to do it.

The image is meant to convey a feeling. It is meant to make an abstract concept from the article a little more tangible.

In the past, I'd search for images on the net that I could use to accomplish that. Now I can craft them with DALL-E, and they are usually much better.

This image should complement the article. Just like the text of the article is meant to convey some information, feeling, or concept, the image should do a bit of that as well.

I don't know the exact word for the style, but this article is pretty egregious for the overly stylised "AI art". This just looks cheap, obviously "AI", and is pretty distracting for me. I don't know if that was the intention or not, but it's a detractor for me.

Quality of writing and quality of imagery varies a lot. It’s hard to do.

It looks like an ad for a shitty mobile game.
