An artist will have an easier time creating concept art
What about a writer?
I’ve never used it myself for such purposes, but I have a friend who generously uses AI image gen for his extensive constructed world, complete with a glossary and pages which link to each other. He doesn’t have the artistic talent (or time) to make a sketch for every one of his ideas, but he finds they ‘feel’ more complete and sit more ‘fully’ in his mind with an AI gen pic for each one.
I’ve threatened him with bloody murder if he goes to a public release without commissioning real artwork, but as concept art and placeholders, I don’t think AI gen is inherently illegitimate.
