As it is right now, AI image gen lacks significant abstract understanding skills. Hell, LLMs in general suffer from this.
Likewise they hallucinate like crazy, but that's a failure of the Transformers architecture not being robust enough. WE hallucinate easily as well if you inhibit one section of the brain (which certain drugs can do, or you can force it through training, or being a retard and trying to make tulpas and breaking your brain)
The issue is Transformers don't HAVE that inhibiting mechanism built in to it.
Great for imaginary works and creativity, bad at following exact instructions and generating factual content.
The next architecture to replace Transformers will cause a lot of anger, however. (it's already showing signs of a major breakthrough in capabilities)
The next next architecture will put you, me and everyone else out of the job. It will also completely transform humanity due to this.
But it is never an either-or scenario.
Think about it - if a tool comes about that can replace a whole person and gets them fired - that person can themselves use the exact same tools to continue working in spite of the shitty company that fired them.
Open source tools right now are catching up to and in some cases superior to closed source hosted solutions. LLMs are behind in that area, but imagegen is massively superior in the open source side of things for a lot of tasks, but some hosted solutions do create nice stuff, and there is also OpenAIs Sora tool that's getting released soon that shows immense temporal coherence in video generation.
Use the tools. Don't let yourself get left behind.
The luddites of the past that refused to use machines when the printing press came around got left behind. Sewing machines, they got left behind, and so on.
Use the tools.
