My most regular use-case is generating silly memes in group chats. If someone posts something meme-worthy or I come up with a creative response, image generation is good for one-off throwaway memes. A recent example was an "official license to opine on sociology", following someone arguing about credentialism.

Recently I also started using image generation models to explore ideas for what changes to make in my paintings. Although generally I don't like the suggestions it makes, sometimes it provides me with creative ideas of techniques that are worth experimenting with.

One way to approach thinking about it is that it's good for exploring permutations in an idea-space.
