@freebliss@post.lurk.org I've been an artist/graphic designer most of my life in the traditional sense, but I do love to use generative code-based tools and keep wanting to to that more — it leads to different outcomes than I might get otherwise. I'm not talking about gen AI — which isn't very useful for me for many reasons in addition to ethics, etc. Procedural is definitely useful and I'm all-over-that from years of commercial fast-turn design work. Everyone's different 'tho, do what works for you!
