As MNE said: if your purpose is to simply create pictures, you've got the 3D programs, the A.I. programs, the 'shop-alike program etc...
And you will probably get lost because all the time you will be looking for an ever changing said-perfection, kind of running after... what?
Even though making art can be done in several ways, the "fastfood" way of making pictures using A.I. is tiring in the long way. I've used and sometimes I play with Stable Diffusion, but in ma case it's just because I'm lazy, ending in doing hundreds of pictures during a many hours session.

IMO: nothing constructive, very few things to learn (oh yes just the right words for both prompts)
Our brains are requiring more than this laziness or they shrink. They require to learn new things on a regular basis. The learning curve of the A.I. is not so steep, it is quickly covered, even tough new modules and tools are coming regularly.

Psychologically, I remain unsatisfied if not bored with A.I., even if sometimes the resulting picture is amazing
I repeat: IMO.

Now, even though you're not a modeler (and I'm not, indeed, at least as long as I don't retire), building a scene, looking tor the items that are missing in it, building the material, looking for the perfect lighting, posing the characters (am I going to keep them partially naked or will I use a dynamic, complex cloth) etc... is part of the process and for me the most important part of the fun.

These 3D program won't die: many users have gone beyond the simple drop'n'click milestone. The users that are staying back in it either have a whole other process in mind, such as virtual novels (adult or not) or comic books in the process, or they'd better leave the 3D world for A.I. programs.
