Most AI-generated images I've come across (I have in mind Substacks, Medium posts and other personal blogs) are purely "decorative" & having the same (lack of) purpose as stock photography - e.g. a generic photo of people exercising in an article about fitness. In informational articles I find these pointless & also maybe somewhat in poor taste. But then I'd probably feel the same way about regular stock photography. There may be potential for AI-generated explanatory visuals though. High-quality diagrams, graphs, map of complex conceptual relationships and so on would be exciting.
