The thing is, regular people have been under the impression that computers are capable of generating complex imagery by themselves for quite some time already. About 10 years ago I was visiting family, and my uncle -- an older guy who enjoys tinkering with technology -- asked me to draw a picture on his new tablet. Now, I've spent a fair chunk of my life drawing, so I was able to sketch a pretty decent face quite quickly with just the basic pencil tool. When I handed it back, he was so amazed that he grabbed my grandmother as she was walking past. "Look at this! Look at what your grandson drew!" She glanced over, completely unimpressed, and said "yeah, but that's on the computer".
