This.

I said it elsewhere in this thread differently but people want to pretend the options are:

1. Paying a local designer to make a bespoke beautiful poster

OR

2. Use AI

It's not, the money is often just not there to pay someone. So you get whatever the intern or the owner can slap together in whatever tool they know best (which is rarely the best tool for the job).

It's completely understandable that they would reach for LLMs to help improve their posters.

So many people are anti-AI/anti-LLM just because it is AI/LLM, not because it's objectively worse than the alternative. It's tiring.

It's the Electron vs Native argument all over again. Sure, we'd all love hand-crafted, beautiful, low-resource native applications for everything, that takes a lot of time and/or money. It's a decision between Native and Electron, it's a decision between Electron or nothing (or at best only 1 OS supported).
