Things I've learned in a year of using generative AI daily
I’ve spent a year working with generative AI daily, and I saw some conclusions
In Dreamshot I’ve been working closely integrating AI providers with the product.
- AI replaces tools, not people
- The artist's eye is still needed; getting images or clips simply checking a series of requirements isn't enough
- It never works perfectly the first time; it's an iterative process, just like in coding
- The model can't read your mind; you have to be extremely specific. Tooling and metaprompting is a must
- Fixing one problem may create other problems. In this regard, working with code is easier
- Most of the tooling and models are good, but still not good enough
A large majority of the ads we see are, and have been for some time, generated with AI, and this trend won't stop from now on
