This is really impressive. As a former designer, I'm equally excited that people will be able to generate images like this with a prompt, and sad that there will be much less incentive for people to explore design / "photoshopping" as a craft or a career.

At the end of the day, a tool is a tool, and the computer had the same effect on the creative industry when people started using them in place of illustrating by hand, typesetting by hand, etc. I don't want my personal bias to get in the way too much, but every nail that AI hammers into the creative industry's coffin is hard to witness.

I feel you. Infact, IMO, SWE1 level coding industry seems to be a couple years lagging on this aspect.

The trouble is that learning fundamentals now is a large trough to go past, just the way grade 3-10 children learn their math fundamentals despite there being calculators. It's no longer "easy mode" in creative careers.
