The machines are "trained" by scraping other digital art works and attaching LLM strings to describe them. They literally steal the art of others, to make that content available for calling up during "generation."
It is useful as an accessibility tool, for things like identifying objects and describing images. As an art tool, it regurgitates what others have done in quasi-bespoke arrangements at the user's request. It does not produce art, it produces output that can be artful on account of its having been art before being regurgitated.
It can caption images for the vision or visual processing impaired. It can assist with tasks that otherwise require extensive scholarship. It can not replace that scholarship, and it cannot replace the talent of an artist, and it cannot produce something even relatively novel.
It has uses that can assist humans. It should not be used otherwise, and is actively assisting in the destruction of our planet by consuming vast amounts of energy and water while producing equally vast amounts of waste heat.
Your skill at putting together strings of words that convine the AI to give you output that is pleasing, may or may not be a skill in itself. It doesnt seem to be worth bragging about, in any case.
