AI Image Generators Visualize Imagination, Reveal Arbitrary Structures

AI image generators like DALL-E allow people to quickly visualize any concept or idea, amplifying imagination.

Seeing AI-generated images of imaginary concepts helps reveal the arbitrary structures we take for granted.

Using AI to mimic reality accurately is difficult; it works better for imaginative concepts.

The purpose of AI-generated images is not the images themselves, but the visualization of thoughts.

Like a dream journal, AI offers rapid externalization of internal notions, for the thinker rather than an audience.
