    That’s an interesting enough idea in theory, so here’s my take on it, in case you want one.

    Yes, it sounds magical, but:

    • AI sucks at make it more X. It doesn’t understand scary, so you’ll get worse crops of the training data, not meaningful changes.
    • It’s prohibitively expensive and unfeasible for the majority of consumer hardware.
    • Even if it gets a thousand times cheaper and better at its job, is GenAI really the best way to do this?
    • Is it the only one? Are alternatives also built on exploitation? If they aren’t, I think you should reconsider.
