I prefer AI generated images over stock photos though. You can tell that both are phony, but at least the AI can be a bit more creative.

People in stock photos can generally be counted on to have no more than a traditional number of hands.
Th issue is that we’re now getting tons of blog posts with AI-generated images that previously didn’t dare to use stock photos.
I prefer no images over IA stolen/generated images.
