I think this article is a good demonstration of how the nebulous concept of "taste" still dominates, despite AI taking over so much.
IMO -- and apparently the opinion of others -- adding an AI-generated picture every single paragraph in your article in which the primary purpose is to, presumably, discuss a topic rather than show off your AI-generated art, is in extremely poor taste. It's distracting, it makes it hard to focus on the text, and to be perfectly blunt, nobody is impressed by your ability to create pictures by AI.

I do respect your opinion, I did that intentionally and I want to keep it as my style.
Using images extensively and use metaphorical language::))))
I'm going to get my nearly-6-year-old to do a picture for every single paragraph of my blog posts from now on.
At least they're real art, and he's way better on the Wacom tablet than I am.
Plus rather than boiling off half a dozen loads of laundry's worth of water and electricity, he'll do an hour or so of them on a glass of apple juice and a cheese and ham roll.
If he'd learn how to get the graphics tablet out of the mode where it just draws massive random-sized rainbow colour stars over everything when he's done with it, I'd consider that a bit of a win.
It's given a certain limitation to my art style because I can't figure it out at all.
In my opinion, there's no such thing as "learning how to use LLMs" You interact with those tools using natural language, and normal people learn how to use natural language when they're 2 or 3, and master it as they grow.
you're correct that being good with language is a useful skill for operating LLMs, and fortunately you get to practice and improve that skill whenever you work with an LLM. being well-read helps too, being precise with vocabulary is important and idioms/metaphors can pack a lot of semantic meaning into a few sentences.
just because you don't know how to swim doesn't mean people can't swim.
