Playing with AI

I have to start off by saying I find AI generated art…disturbing…and yet fascinating.

I started playing with LISA AI last night. At the time I only had a few photos of myself on my phone and the results were… disappointing.

I mean, this guy is hot. As the kids say, "I'd hit it." But accurate based on the photos I put into the system? Not even close. Even though the photos I used were current, apparently the AI thought I was in my 20s (bless it's digitized heart). I mean, I wish I looked this good when I was in my 20s. How, exactly, the AI came up with these based on the photos I put in is a mystery. I do, however, love the blue/purple hair. I'd do that now if I still had any hair to do it with.

This is probably the one that looks most like me of the 50 it generated.

So this morning I decided to explore further. I copied a bunch of other photos onto my phone and uploaded them. I also discovered I could select different styles, and I have to say, me likey. This particular style was called "oil painting:"

"Pixar"

And of course, the obligatory "Astronaut:"
