Friend of a friend decided they could make art with generative AI, and they wouldn't need to practice any skills to do it. They honestly thought they were going to make billions from D&D art. They had also been incredibly jealous of the people who had practiced enough to get good at art or music. Generative AI art was their intended shortcut to money and respect, because practicing is difficult and tedious.

They gave up after being told that nobody wanted their pictures. Now they're even more resentful because in their eyes their "valuable skill" was mocked.
