When I first started working with AI a year ago it took me 20 minutes to generate one image. Now, I press a button and have an image in five seconds.
Originally, I knew of just one program that generated images from text prompts, but I have been amazed at how quickly the volume of online tools has increased in the past 12 months. It's like there was a big bang and now it's accelerating nonstop.
