Their explanation was just that they prefer having the staff dig up stock photos rather than use AI.

No reasons why were given, it was just a preference. To me this is a perfect use of AI and is lets the staff creativity actually shine more because they aren’t limited to stock photos and it’s probably way faster.

See how I actually explained my position rather than just stated a preference with no explanation?

"See how I actually explained my position?" he asked, contrasting his brilliant assessment of the situation at SNL against the foolishly informal tweet by the former SNL writer. The redditor smirked. "Doesn't he understand facts and logic?"

The former SNL writer didn’t explain his position. That’s why I’m asking other people why they think AI is a bad use case for this.
