Even as a tool it lacks predictability / reproducability. If I give instructions to download a paint program, start a new canvas of 1920x1080 and use the gradient tool to go from red to green, you’re going to get the same result every time. If I instead told a class of students to ask an AI to generate a red to green gradient on a 1920x1080 canvas, the results would not be consistent.

I use AI, but it is a tool with flaws.
