It's silly that there's a stigma attached to AI generated images in cases where it's perfectly reasonable to do. People seem to appreciate things more for the fact that they were created by spending time out of another human's life more than what it actually is.
It would be silly if they were indistinguishable from human-created images, but they aren't, exhibiting the typical AI artifacts and weirdness, and thereby signal a lack of care/caring.
"lack of care" - that's the part about spending time out of another human's life. It's not the poor quality that's the problem but the lack of human effort. Oil paintings are full of visible brush strokes which are an artifact but people love them. For most applications of art - advertising, background decorations, news article pictures, etc. there really is no need to show that humans spent effort on it.
The human effort idea is even a bit morally objectionable. You can feel that you're worth more than others because more of the lives of others were consumed to create your possessions. It's a zero sum game where poor people can never afford high-care art because their time is worth less than the artist's.

The biggest problem with the default Flux model is that it generates images with that strong AI look, probably caused by the distillation of the CFG. You should try some LoRAs for this, and also prompt the model to generate the rack that holds the letters.
Good point. I have a comfyui setup for it but its super basic right now just the diffusion model / clip loader / vae. Another thing you've probably noticed is that 99% of images from Flux tend to have that classic narrow depth of field look. I've seen people occasionally be able to get around it with pretty amusing prompt tokens like "instagram photo, selfie, gopro, etc." though.
The number markings on the Scrabble pieces are nonsensical, the wooden ground looks like plastic, there are strange artifacts like the white smudge on the edge of the “E” tile in the front, and so on.
AI-generated images are clearly identifiable as such, and it just gets annoying to continually see those desultory fabrications.
