    literally nothing to do with what I said

    my dearest brother, that comment was made with my tongue in my cheek… but i mean, it is something to do with what you said, but they don’t repackage it and claim responsibility for it…

    well, although some, $500/plate restaurants actually do fun things like microwave michelinas… your analogy would be closer to stable diffusion “prompt engineers” if you took several well made meals, separated the components, gave it to a robot to reassemble into a new menu item that you described to it, and then said, “hey look, i’m a chef and i made this!”

    or maybe a better one is if you were a restaurant owner, but couldn’t cook, and wrote out a menu with descriptions of the meals, handed the menu to the kitchen and told them to make it… and then said you invented the meals…

    and although there are some pretty ridiculous poseur artists, it caaan be used by actual artists as part of their process…

    and there’s a nifty greyzone craftsman-like process of feeding images back into it, erasing parts, or altering different parts, recombining images and tweaking parameters and whatnot…
