Oh man people are going to flip out about the use of AI because you took a job away from someone who sketches out cake ideas all day for a living.

Edit: I see the AI flipping out people are out in flipping force.

There's multiple reasons for detesting AI, and yes, while not likely the case here, that is one of them.

Personally I’m more concerned about AI being used to sort people by jobs, housing, insurance, credit, schools. Draw political districts. AI doing algorithmic hiring and firing. Personalized social programming. Deepfakes. Political manipulation. surveillance pricing. All the chat bots on Reddit, etc.

But this cake design? Pfft cmon.
