Week 1 Discussion

Didn't get a chance to post here during week 1, hoping it's not too late :D

Which editing tools (rewrite, shorten, change tone, etc.) did you find most valuable, and why?
Definitely "Make shorter" and "Make longer". So useful when looking to make quick changes but not feeling inspired. And not an editing per se, but I love the "Generate from selection" > "Create an AI image prompt". It doesn't always hit the mark but gives such a strong baseline to keep building off of to come up with a good prompt. 

What challenges did you face when trying to get AI to produce the results you wanted?
The image generation definitely has limitations (some of which are probably due to user's limitations in writing accurate prompts).

I wanted to generate an image of a person looking in a mirror and holding a piece of paper (as if they were rehearsing a speech) but couldn't get to an image where the image reflected in the mirror matched the image of the person standing in front of the mirror. The hands weren't in the same position. 

Like other users in this conversation, I also struggled with the practice activity where we needed to generate an image around web cookies without having a food cookie appearing on the image. Took a few tries and when I got to the right prompt, still three out of the four generated images had a cookie on them. So definitely more work to do on my end to figure out how to write the best prompts for best results!
