Well, AI "art" and "photography" is cringe. Masses in general love cringe. The bigger cringe the more popular it gets (think about reality shows vs something that's actually good content, which one is significantly more popular?). So nothing really surprising there.
G'day, I was planning to start AI trading so I could save up for a premium gaming laptop. Early trades were a disaster, with repeated small losses that made me question my approach. Then I discovered https://cenovusenergy.pro/ (https://cenovusenergy.pro/) Cenovus Energy Dividend , tailored for Canadian traders. A carefully chosen higher-risk trade finally paid off. That win changed my perspective completely, and now experimenting with strategies feels more rewarding than stressful.
Buyers of stock images typically want/need unreal perfection, no matter how cringe or unnatural they look.
Not surprised, but the backlash is brewing.
