"You must use a really good AI."

But anyway, I have always felt that as an artist shapes with a tool, the tool shapes the artist as well. In photography, one may tend to see as one's camera and lenses 'see'...or perhaps use a process that influences how one sees and creates images.
I agree 100%

And of course there is no image if there is no camera. Oh well if you use AI you may not need a camera after all.

When a long time friend of mine the other day saw my latest print he told me that I have a very good camera. It could just have been a comment slightly out of place if it was just the once, but it isn’t. If my friend is to be believed I have a bunch of very good cameras but what he thinks of my photographic skills are still a mystery after about 45 years of knowing him since he is always praising my equipment.

"Yes, I do, thnak you. But keep in mind that if someone put a Strandberg gutar into your hands or into my hands, the music it produced would probably sound pretty attrocious! It wouldn't sound a lot better than a $50 pawn shop buy. How it is used is what is most important."
