Summary

"It's becoming more and more common to see AI-created illustrations in children's books. Some are delightful! But compared to Eric Carle, Maurice Sendak, and other beloved illustrators, these works are missing a little something: the unique perspective and feeling of a human artist. In this book, readers learn about GenAI: pros and cons, what it can and can't do, and more. Examples of great illustrators demonstrate the specialness of human talent while concluding chapters encourage readers to find their own inspiration off-screen"-- Provided by publisher.
