AI tools for artist: GODSEND or HELLSPAWN

Inspired by this post:https://www.instagram.com/p/DVtnBnskwT1/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

In short, an artist starts to embrace AI tools and gets a better grasp of how using said tools influences your thinking.

I'm curious if there are other artist here that faced the same dilemmma she did, and tried to make something with the tools instead of just dreading them.

Does art made with AI tools diminish the value of the finished product?
