The first time I used an online AI generator, it immediately struck me that it's kind of like a slot machine. Drop your prompt, hit the generate button, and see what comes out. Maybe it's nightmare-fuel bad anatomy. Maybe it kind of missed your prompt. Maybe it's OK, but not quite right. But then, BAM, just what you asked for. Instant dopamine hit.
So yeah, it's pretty easy to keep pulling the slot machine lever to see what comes out. There's always another great image generation just around the corner.
I have a good enough PC to install Stable Diffusion locally and run the model I want, so I did that and then took a couple of weeks to learn how best to prompt it. An hour or two of generation gives me more than enough to sort through for "keepers" that I've steadily been building up.
Hasn't kept me from going out and touching grass though. Maybe it's because there seem to be fewer creators of the particular inflation and WG pr0n that appeals to me. It had been getting more and more brief and boring to go surf for what I like -- just lots of same-y half-assed stuff all the time. Then generative AI hit and models started getting workable. I can spend the same time I did collecting shit online, just generating shit myself. For the time spent, I get better results. Can't argue with that. Then it's time to go do something else. No problem. Just set boundaries and stick to it.
