Do you need statistical numbers for every information you receive? I don’t have any numbers to show you besides the fact that everyone I have spoken to in the last 6 months knows how to generate an image on ChatGPT. I work in the construction industry, and 100% of the companies I deal with have at some point posted an AI-generated poster on their social media, or created their flyers and business cards. YMMV.
In this case, where you're making bold claims about the preferences of "le average user," statistical numbers would be preferable over anecdotes.
Well, you said "the numbers show". But anyway, not being able to tell the difference and not caring is very different from "having tried it at some point".

That goes without saying. If you can speak to them, if they have a pulse, they can "generate an image". A cat walking over a keyboard can generate an image. That is the lowest bar ever.
