Please do not add genAI images to punch up your writing. You might think that it adds a nice little bit of visual pizazz to your content-marketing piece, but what you're actually doing is *making it look like content marketing* rather than a useful resource.

A genAI turd plopped on top of your writing is a signal that it will be worthless slop.
