There's an element missing here. In addition to the intentionality that goes before the generation of the artifact, there's intentionality that comes after it, too. "Is this what I like?" "Should I show one of these to an audience?" "Which ones should I show?"

That requires evaluation and discernment. So it's not just the skill and creative imagination in the production of the work, but also in the curation of it. Regardless of the tool, discernment and curation divide craft from slop.
