I really dislike the cartoons, because they are carelessly generated images. On the first look they appear to be actual cartoons (you know, where details were deliberately placed to convey meaning), but the more you look the more confusing they get because it seems that most details here are accidental.

To me bad illustrations are worse than no illustrations. They also reflect poorly on the author, so I'm much less inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt, and probably end up dismissing their prose.

Which only goes to emphasise the point the author makes. Over-reliance on AI, in this case, for image generation.

Seems like AI was leaned on for the text as well…

Where there is AI illustrations today, in the past would be clip art with little relevance to the work.
