A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Everyone is terrible when they start. You can get better if you practice over time.
You might not ever draw the next big masterpiece, but if you practice you will get better.
All it takes is 15-30 minutes a day.
I'm 47. I have tried. My problem isn't inputting pixels, I can do that. I've done drafting with paper and pencil and with CAD tools (I'm an engineer). My problem is knowing where to put the pixels/lines for the thing I want to create (which I can do for a schematic, but not for anything that is to have any realism. I've never had a problem with schematics. I can make a drawing that is very clear in terms of all functional aspects).
I have ideas, I am simply not good at implementation. AI tools allow me to express my ideas. And if you think I'm less than for that, you can bite my shiny metal ass, because I'm not creating for you. I'm creating for me, and sometimes for people I'm close to (usually to make them laugh).
There are definitely exceptions
