Creator finds hand-tweaking generative models faster than prompts, sees room beyond text UIs
keenanisalive · x · 2026-10-10
Wrapping up a long thread, the author reflects on creating with generative models: low-level tweaks were often awkward to express as text prompts, and adjusting the model by hand felt faster. The creative process resembled paint, clay, or 3D modeling—just at a different level of abstraction—and evolved as he developed techniques. His takeaway: there's plenty of room to build richer, non-text-based interfaces around these models.
