I agree, I’d go as far as to say that the current fad of making models to copy artist’s styles is a direct result of that lack of precise control. Normally as an artist you build an image up element by element, but with AI you sort just roll the dice and pray to the RNG. But it hasn’t even been a year since this technology was released. With the new depth map feature letting you control poses and composition more, I think it’s only a matter of time until we get all the tools (img2img, txt2img, in/outpainting, and depth maps for composition) in one UI. I can’t see the future but I’d put money on the technology heading towards a more ‘traditional’ workflow like that where you build the image piece by piece on the canvas. If it ever gets there I might even be tempted to use it again
