> AI is going to do better than I could

I don't know about that. Lots of people use AI to write text for them, saying "AI makes it sound better"—but the truth is, it doesn't make it sound better. It makes it sound a lot worse, and pisses off the people you want to read it. So does AI draw better than you could? Well, if you did the drawing, would it make your customer base hate it? Because AI art probably will. I don't know if that's "better".

Maybe there's a hair top be split with regard to 1) presenting your written piece to an LLM and asking for feedback (not dissimilar to the role of an editor for authors—or, you know, just reading it aloud to your spouse to elicit feedback) versus 2) asking the LLM to write it for you wholesale.

I have done the same with artwork (although not exclusive I must confess). I draw a thing, upload it, and ask the AI to draw the same—perhaps adding, "Make it appear to be an ink and brush style perhaps akin to a mid-19th-Century illustration for a children's book."
