Photoshop isn't going to make images. It isn't going to create anything.
And 'generative AI' is literally doing that. So AI is not like photoshop. Writing the prompt 'big tiddy goth gf' and AI shitting out an uncanny valley image straight out of a nightmare is not the same as drawing a big tiddy goth gf.
The only valid use generative AI has in the creative process is as a placeholder. For example in game development. For that use you can use it as a tool. For anything else it isn't a tool anymore just as microwaving a canned soup isn't actually cooking.
