the issue isn't that it generates diverse people, thats actually good.

the issue is that it forces inclusivity without regard for the prompt.

You shouldn't be using a waste of electricity like image generators anyway.

If you actually need an image, commission an artist.

I don't "actually need" an image, nor can I afford to commission a fraction of what I made with stable diffusion.

I am not willing to spend $20-30 (what I can afford, once a month) on a commission for one image that I may or may not like only to end up using it as a wallpaper.

If I owned a corporation and wanted professional art I will definitely commission or employ artists.
