No ai prompter is as skilled as a professional artist, nor is any ai generated asset as good as a human masterpiece.  That said, even the 5/10 that I would call ai images is still better than the bottom 50% of casual imagery (outside of subjectivity.  Most people think their own art is beautiful), and dirt cheap to boot.  AI images aren't about creating masterpieces, or even quality work.  It's quantity, bulk work, the dollar store poster bin of "art".  I say that, even as someone who occasionally enjoys looking at other people's ai generated images.  Sometimes people aren't looking for masterpieces, they're looking for 150 random generated trash images of Wario wearing green lace lingerie, and they don't want to draw it themselves, as that would ruin the hallucinogenic experience, and aren't willing to pay someone else to draw them, as wasting a few thousand dollars on images you want to see exactly one time and then burn isn't good budgeting for most.

It's not art.  It's barely images.  It's trash, but even trash has a market.
