> I can semi-draw with AI help. Good enough.

Good for you. But that's not drawing, though. You won't know what drawing is until you try. Then you'll come back with more questions. It's an open-ended endeavor.

Drawing is not something you solve with an app.

That's why the whole premise of this thread is a bit sad. AI is a tool that bypasses the joy (and the point) of drawing entirely.

Oh I tried. I suck.

If I worked at it, I would still suck.

Am I to be deprived of the capability to take images from inside my head and turn them into pixels TO PROTECT THE CARTEL OF PEOPLE WHO CAN DO IT MANUALLY?

Seems like a bad idea.

Whether AI generated work should be copyright able is a MUCH MUCH harder question.

Maybe the answer you seek is there.
