I used an AI program to generate pictures to use in a book cover
illustration. I gave it descriptions of the main characters, and in
the 8th or 9th attempt it produced pictures more or less as I pictured
them. 

You can see the process and the result here:

But I didn't want to do a human artist out of a job, so I used the
picture as a specification for a human artist: design a book cover
with kids like these. They don't have to be in the smae poses or
wearing the same clothes, but they should like something like the kids
in the picture.

What I've had so far is offers from people who have used AI to
manipulate the sample I posted, usually with horrible results.
