AI made exploration much cheaper for me i'm not sure it made the work more enjoyable.
i enjoyed manually exploring different directions even when it took a lot of effort
once i had a solid foundation, new screens came together pretty easily
now i can generate a dozen directions and get something functional quickly but it's often almost unusable.
most of my work comes afterward:
rearranging things,
discarding bad ideas,
removing generated slop...
feeling like this limping little guy protecting you from the slop

That limping little guy protecting us from the slop is painfully relatable, Anton. I feel the same: generating a dozen directions is cheap now, but the rearranging, discarding and de-slopping afterward is where the real craft lives.
