AI image generation is a wonderful invention for writers. It can bring to life images from words in a vivid way, especially with fantasy, where there are no real life subject to photograph or film. From a purely business angle, vivid images attract readers, whether that is a carefully crafted book cover, instagram image, or tiktok video. Books allow readers to be creative with their minds. That experience is unique. There is no substitute for it. People and AI have one big similarity. You can feed them both wonderful images and that will enrich their imaginations. That is why living art will never die. There is no competition with AI. Despite AI, more people than ever go to art school. Artwork is traded more than ever. Works of art go for extraordinary sums of money.
