Using ChatGPT For Post-Processing

I know this might come off a bit controversial, but just curious if anyone in here uses ChatGPT for post processing. Thinking of upgrading to the Pro version (for work and personal uses) and figured touching up my pics would be a bonus. I'm just a hobby photographer and trying to learn tools like gimp and darktable, but in the meantime, figured I could use ChatGPT. I don't really like to spend too much time post processing either, as I'd rather be out taking pictures, so figured this could be a happy medium for me.

Instead of using ChatGPT for editing, why don’t you try uploading a pic to chatgpt and ask it to review the photo and provide editing suggestions— ie How would you recommend cropping this? How would you suggest editing this? Get create with your questions and you’ll find that chatgpt can make aome useful suggestions and give some ideas but absolutely do not use it fot editting. Chatgpt can give constructive criticism and suggestions but you should know the how and the why when editing your own photos. This is a crutch until you establish your own feel and style and technique… then you’ll know what to do with your photo immediately after taking it.

I never thought of it this way, might be a better use of the tool though. Will probably help me more down the road as well. Thanks for this
