AI-generated creative work: where do you draw the line?

I'm curious how people actually feel about AI-generated work when they're building something of their own.

For example, imagine you're starting a business and need things like a brand identity, logo, website, copy, strategy, etc.

Would you rather:

A) use AI to generate most of it yourself because it's faster and cheaper

B) work with a human designer/strategist who creates it with you

C) use a combination of both, with AI helping behind the scenes but humans making the final creative decisions

And more importantly, why?

Is there a point where AI-generated work starts to feel too generic, impersonal, or disconnected from the person behind the idea?

I'm especially interested in hearing from people who have actually used AI to build a business or creative project, rather than just opinions about AI in general.

Starting something from scratch

What was the last thing you wanted to build but didn't know where to start? what were you trying to create?
what did you do first? where did you get stuck? what did you try to do about it? did you eventually pay someone for help?

what was the hardest part of starting something from scratch?

For people who have tried to turn an idea into something real, what was the hardest part?

I'm curious about people's actual experiences starting or creating something from scratch, whether it was a business, creative project, product, book, app, or anything else.

What part of the process was most difficult for you?

What did you try when you got stuck?

Was there anything you wish you had known earlier?

Did you ever decide to get outside help? If so, what made you decide it was worth paying for?

And what made you not want to ask for help?

I'm mainly interested in what actually happened, rather than what you think you would do in that situation.

Is “weare[brand].com” okay when the brand name is already taken?

I’m building a startup and I’ve run into a domain problem that I’m genuinely stressing over.

The brand name itself is not changing. I’ve already designed the logo, developed the brand identity, written the business plan, worked out what the company represents, planned the services, written a ton of the website copy, and basically built out the entire foundation of the brand. I’ve put a ridiculous amount of time into this already, so changing the actual name at this point isn’t really an option.

The exact .com for the brand name is already taken.

I’m considering using weare[brand].com as the domain instead.

The important part is that “We Are [Brand]” would NOT be the company’s name. The company would still just be [Brand]. “We Are” would only be part of the domain because the exact .com isn’t available.

For example, the branding would still say:

[Brand]

while the website would be:

weare[brand].com

Does this feel normal and professional for a startup, especially a creative/modern brand? Or would you immediately assume the company itself is called “We Are [Brand]”?

I’m trying to avoid things like adding “agency,” changing the spelling of the name, or using a weird domain extension because I really want to preserve the actual brand name.

Would you consider weare[brand].com a reasonable solution, or does it look awkward/unprofessional?
