So in your mind, there is no scenario where people ask AI to create a more focused (even single-purpose) image editing app, and either make it free or charge a small amount?

Because I'm seeing that happening more and more. Just as one random example, I've lost count of the number of vibe coded captioning apps I've seen for FCP, because it's a known pain point in the software.

Sure, but there isn't much of a business in it I would say. People who are too cheap to pay for Photoshop aren't going to pay for a small tool either. And Affinity is already free and very powerful.

Just saying… Canva started as a "small tool" that was in no way competitive with Photoshop.
