AI made me faster. but also made me question who's making the art now

was making a video yesterday. Opened framia, typed a prompt, got a draft,tweaked it and typed another. then got another draft tweaked that.

halfway through I realized I wasn't actually "making" anything. I was just choosing my favorite option out of 4

Whose work is this anyway? Mine? The AI's? Some weird mix?

used to spend hours on every frame. now I spend minutes on prompts. I'm faster. Way faster.

But am I still making stuff? Or just... picking which AI output I like best?

It starts as a collaborator. Slowly it becomes the thinker. You stop coming up with ideas and just start judging the AI's ideas. It's quiet. But it's real.

Don't get me wrong. Not quitting AI. Framia saves me too much time. Just trying to be more intentional about where I draw the line.

Anyone else or am I overthinking it?
