Trying to Master ComfyUI via ChatGPT Wasted a Whole Week

To dive into local AI image/video generation, the author bought an RTX 5060 Ti 16GB and tried using ChatGPT as a step-by-step guide to "make a photo move" in ComfyUI. A week of frustration followed: endlessly installing and uninstalling custom nodes, Forge, Pinokio, Flux, LTX Video, multiple checkpoints, and CLIP encoders; tweaking RAM and virtual memory; chasing "missing model" errors; and getting shifting advice after every failure. Ultimately, they discovered ComfyUI already had a built-in LTX-2.3 workflow, rendering the old workflows they spent days fixing entirely obsolete.
