Yes, I also like the prospect that this tool would allow rapid prototyping and storyboarding for games, graphic novels, films etc. Being able to generate a rough idea of what you want or envisage for a scene and show that to an artist/director of photography/whatever would be very useful.
> writers who have a good idea for a story
Or programmers who are bad at art, so, programmers in general ;)

I'm a programmer that's bad at art, and DALL-E is amazing for me. It generated me a logo I love for my open source app within a couple of batches.
I would have gone logoless rather than slog through trying to find an artist on Fiverr.
There being lots of low/mid quality games is, I think, a problem that already exists today on app stores -- on Steam especially between Greenlight & vast numbers of games 'releasing' in Early Access... and the more that a single writer with some dev skills can do on their own the more opportunity they have to develop their games as a brand, and get feedback to fire their creativity.
