I've been using a few AI programs to create pictures. Artbreeder, which does allow a bit of direct user input so that the finished picture isn't just AI. NightCafe and Wombo Dream are more automatic and require text prompts. I have noticed that some people produce better quality pictures with these programs than others. They seem to have worked out what prompts work best. So I guess there is some skill involved even if it's just understanding how the AI might interpret prompts.

The way things are going, I think it's only a matter of time before AI is able to create accurate pictures. This won't be good for real artists. Although I have to admit I find these programs fascinating and like not knowing quite what they will churn out.
