> New technology puts that power into the hands of every single person. I think the bar is roughly the same, all things considered. If you're going to photoshop, then it's largely a matter of combining two images with a sufficient amount of masking and blurring to make it appear good enough. With image generators, you've got a couple different options. The more trivial would be doing img2img on your target, the more complex being making a LORA. Knowing how tech savvy the average Andy is not, I would say anyone capable of going through the steps to do the AI method could, with some brute-forcing, also manage the Photoshop method. Setting up a local instance of any image generator is beyond the majority of the population, so the closest most can get is paid online GUIs that offer an existing service that they first must become moderately proficient in for good results. Only real difference is that anyone who can do it is much more capable of scale over time than previously. With enough Comfy nodes, you could probably even automate it given face detection and arbitrary images.
