I would argue both are exactly the same. The images are getting nicer, the AI can alter pictures better. It's the same as coding.

The difference is our perception. Looking at image takes 2s, and we can spot what we don't like. Looking at a code change takes hours to understand. It's very difficult to tell how much code generation is improving because almost nobody is reading it.

Image and code generation don't correlate exactly, but I would be surprised to see a big jump of capabilities in either without the other quickly following.
