It will not.

I'm an engineer through and through. I can ask an LLM to generate images just fine, but for a given target audience for a certain purpose? I would have no clue. None what so ever. Ask me to generate an image to use in advertisement for Nuka Cola, targeting tired parents? I genuinely have no idea of where to even start. I have absolutely no understanding of the advertisement domain, and I don't know what tired parents find visually pleasing, or what they would "vibe" with.

My feeble attempts would be absolute trash compared to a professional artist who uses AI to express their vision. The artist would be able to prompt so much more effectively and correct the things that they know from experience will not work.

It's the exact same as with coding with an AI - it will be trash unless you understand the hows and the whys.

I believe you, did you try asking ChatGPT or Claude though?

You can ask them a list of highest-level themes and requirements and further refine from there.

Have you seen modern advertisements lmao? Most of the time the ad has nothing to do with the actual product, it's an absolute shitshow.

Although I've seen a little American TV ads before, that shit's basically radioactively coloured, same as your fizzy drinks.
