HOW TO BE CREATIVE WITHOUT AI part 9 of (?) Okay, but, I'm working with an art director who wants a style that I can't do on my own and I'm on a deadline. What's wrong with using AI just to keep myself going? I hate to tell you, but whatever you're doing with AI, that art director can do without you. You're better off passing on that job because it's a fully unsustainable path.

HOW TO BE CREATIVE WITHOUT AI part 10 of 10 But I'm the art director, and I'm on a tight budget, and the boss wants a style that I can't afford unless it's from AI, can't I just do it? If this is you, you're the problem. You already know that AI is an ethical and environmental disaster. If you are at all qualified for your job you also know that the imagery is empty and awful. If you won't at least try to fight for paying an artist to produce meaningful art, I don't know what to tell you.
