Funny thing I'm noticing is how quickly AI-generated art has started to look extremely cheap and untrustworthy because we're associating it with a certain kind of low-budget ad (eg. scammy mobile games).
Art that comes cheap is going to look cheap, regardless of your fancy tech.
In case you missed the news..

You can't help the association. Even if you can't consciously recognize AI art, your brain is going to go, "Thing that looks like X shows up at very annoying times and is annoying, therefore I do not like the look of X."
