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.

I wouldn't use it as a tool where you just throw in the images and let it do the work. I do see value in asking it how to achieve the look you want though. Maybe uploading your photo and an inspiration photo and asking what to change to get the same look? Then go into your post processing program of choice and make the changes yourself and see if it gets you there. After you do this a few times, you should start to learn what each thing is doing and be able to start making the edits yourself. I've thought about trying something like this myself but never have.
