    Good generative AI requires a ton of editing. The total available toolchain in ComfyUI is nearly as complicated as GIMP now. The level of technical reading is very advanced, far more than GIMP, Photoshop, or Inkscape. It’s about on par with Blender right now.

    Public proprietary AI tools are a circus novelty. Even the basic stuff people like myself are using are a joke. If you read the documentation for things like the Transformers library, it is designed to be easy to hack around with and is in no way optimized or anything close to a full implementation of AI capabilities. The systems we see are not related to actual performance capacity, they are massive compromises and simplifications. Reading code is like a long list of #TODO’s and example implementations.
