"AI, Create The SCOTUS"

 


Oh boy. Saturday night and I'm perusing Bluesky. Today was weird. After my previous blog about liking cat posts, I'm getting hit with cat posts. I'm not complaining, but it's doodoodoodoodoodoo...

I'm also getting feeds from people who hate AI generated images. I won't call it art because it's not. For me, it's a fun pastime. But, man, these people are angry. I have no intention of leaving any comment defending AI generated images because I'm pretty sure they'll attack me. I did see one poster note she would block anyone who has anything good to say about it. WTF.

Seriously, you complainers sound like narrow minded red hatters. There's room for more beauty in this world, even when created by a machine. (think Dairy Queen ice cream)

If you have never used an AI art app, let me give you a summary. You enter a prompt like, "A beautiful redheaded woman carries a great dane." Then you can use various styles or effects to achieve your "masterpiece."


As you can see, not a great dane, and not a work of art. I've been using Freepik lately which is pretty awful, but I just use the free prompts. I'm not that invested in the process.

I was using NightCafe for awhile and would get some really incredible images like the three below. NCafe can be a pain because you might get back images of people with six fingers or feet facing the wrong way. (Billie has a few extra digits)When it's wrong, it's frustrating and funny. When it's right, there are some very gorgeous results.





I don't sell the results, although, I could if I wanted to. They are mine, even though I don't think so. Not really. Typing in a few words to create an image then taking credit for it feels weird to me.

Look, I understand why artists are upset with AI, sort of, kind of...

Yet, don't blame AI if you can't sell your art. 

Lighten up.

Below is my own art, using acrylic paint. 

Now which work would I have a better chance selling -Vincent or breakfast?


* SCOTUS prompt result using NightCafe.

**Also, a shout-out to Lunapic. I have been using this free app for years. It's just a lot of fun.

An Empty Vessel

He fills his head with Bible quotes  to silence the storm inside  An empty, hollow shell he mimics in disguise  You were not wanted You were unplanned  You are a nothing You have no stand  He bows his head and speaks in tongues  to still the flames of rage the pretender, fake, the fraud  hiding in plain sight You were a mistake  A thirty minute accident  a constant regretful memory  who seeks reason to breathe  from holy ghosts  and devils in red ties  the more you take the lesser man you are smoke and mirrors a shifting shape unseen  You are a mistake  You know it well A fake, a fraud, a lie. *Yes, I'm thinking of a certain someone we know.

Benny, Benny And No Regrets

  It's just so hard to keep up with maga creeps. Here's Benny  Johnson, the guy who started the rumor that DC was a cesspool. He also claimed his house burned down while his family was in it. He's a liar. His house never burned down. You really can't believe much of what this asshat says because he has a habit of playing with facts. He also likes to steal other people's words. He has been fired and suspended numerous times for plagiarism, at least 41 times. It just boggles my mind when these people blatantly lie, then are outraged when called out. People like Johnson, Trump and Leavitt have probably lived their whole lives creating a make believe existence where lying is the norm. At some point it just becomes routine where they find lying acceptable and necessary. To me they are empty shells of mindless walking automatons. They live in a bubble of falsehoods. These are the people in charge of our country.  The NYTimes has done a story about Pinocchio Johnson. I dec...

Wishful Thinking

  Bluesky got my hopes up with rumors of Trump's possible passing because his bronze glow up and swelling cankles were incognito for a few days. He also hasn't been ranting on False Social. Naturally, I went looking only to find he is still breathing, but looking like the grim reaper may be his caddy. It's a weird social phenomenon when normally nice people are wishing for the death of one orange man by natural causes. You know we could hurry this along by other means. Just saying. At this point I don't see anyone stepping up to the plate. It appears only Magas like to murder and buy guns like the left buys books. There is another way, which is as likely as the other idea and that is, Congress growing some balls. Sorry, ladies but you can grow a pair, too. The demented old fool is making rules left and right, illegal I must add, yet, crickets come from Congress. I truly don't understand the game plan if there ever was one on the Maga side. It's clearly not about...
