D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

I have not scrolled through this thread in a while and here is my current take (which some of you may notice has evolved over time):

AI generated art (including writing and music as well as visual art) "works" insofar as most people do not examine art deeply. They glance, maybe even occasionally linger, but rarely examine (or read deeply, or listen fully). There are lots of pieces that are great at a glance in this thread, but none that stand up to scrutiny. The reason for that is that generative AI algorithms are not thinking things. They aren't making decisions. And they certainly aren't, in and of themselves, creating art. They are generating pixels (or words or beats) within a probably expected set of parameters.

This is a good metaphor for art and culture in the modern age, i think. AI art will take people's jobs not because some people want to use AI to generate art -- I think the promise of AI art actually makes art inclusive in its own way -- but because as a culture our consumption of art is so shallow and so untrained in eye, ear and mind that the "slop" looks like art at first glance and very few of us care to examine it further.
Just don't try to examine most human made art too closely either ;)

fantasy watercolor dark age comic book art. A tall, powerful, muscular, robust, strong, female in a volcanic setting. She stands on a rocky outcropping, wearing black armor. She is powerfully built, with short wind blown fire hair, onyx marble skin, and spiral red marking tattoos. Fantasy, gritty, ethereal. Soft focus. Frank Frazetta style. The mood is aggressive.

The ones i did for my book characters over in Give me a prompt and i'll make an image came out with what i wanted.
Was that exactly what you imagined in every detail? If so, that's incredibly lucky! Because I get what Overgeeked is getting at. If you have a general idea or no specific depiction in your head, the image generation can be perfectly fine, maybe even better then that depending on the model used, the subject and the prompt skills.

But if you go, I want this specific tattoo on the left cheek... You're going to get disappointed!

Prompt: striking and detailed elven female character in a dimly lit medieval tavern. She wears an intense, almost defiant expression, with piercing glowing eyes and a slightly furrowed brow. Her face is adorned with freckles and subtle scars, giving her a rugged, battle-hardened appearance. Her blonde hair is messy yet stylish, adding to her rebellious and fierce demeanor. She is dressed in a form-fitted outfit that combines elements of medieval and mercenary-style fashion, revealing a hint of her collarbone and full upper chest. A black choker wraps around her neck, enhancing her edgy look.
