98. Incorrect. It's not just AI

It's also Lightroom, Photoshop, and in some instances Illustrator & Snapseed.

Are you aware Adobe has instituted AI inside Photoshop now?

AI is but another tool in the art bin for artists. Technology evolves. There was once a time when creating digital art wasn't considered art at all, when people believed images created inside Photoshop were utter garbage, when digital photography wasn't real photography, & illustration isn't real art.

These days I don't have to worry about exposing myself to radioactive cadmium oils or breathing in paint from using acrylics with a Pasche airbrush. I think that's a good thing.
My BFA is in illustration from Rocky Mountain College of Art & Design. 😁

We're in an art Renaissance. And it's a beautiful thing.
