MODERATORS
Mixed feelings. I decided not to study graphic design because I saw the writing on the wall, so I'm a little salty. I think they can be really useful for cutting back on menial tasks though. For example, I don't see why people bitch about someone using AI for their cover letter as long as they proofread it afterwards. That seems like the kind of thing you'd want to automate, unlike art and human interaction.
I think right now I just kind of hate AI because of capitalism. Tech companies are trying to make it sound like they can do so many things they really can't, and people are falling for it.
Writing a cover letter is a good exercise in self reflection
True, I just assumed that reflection was required in order to give the AI the prompt, and the AI was mainly used to format it correctly. I might be talking out of my ass here since I haven't used it extensively.
