We're at the beginning of a rapidly evolving situation where out of the blue it is now possible to direct an AI to produce imagery that is interesting using just language. From there to moving animations is a relatively small step and already being worked on. From there to photo realistic scenes directed by just words not that big of a leap either and also something that is being worked on. Are there constraints, glitches, and limitations. Of course. Has that ever stopped artists producing interesting art? Of course not. People have been telling stories via art ever since people figured out that they could scratch things into rock, clay, and whatever.

Perhaps the depressing thing for some artists is that they need to adapt to this and up their game. We've seen the same with photography. Every idiot can now have a decent phone camera and there are plenty of people on Instagram doing not so interesting things with those. Does that invalidate what really good photographers do? No. But it does make their work less special when an AI guided camera in the hands of an absolute amateur can produce photos that are decent. And now with this, you could produce realistic looking photos of things that don't exist by simply asking for them in the right way.

More content means the quality standards are raised. There are not a lot of artists left that make a living scratching things in rocks. But there are more artists than ever. The only real limitation is their imagination.
