The Hitchhiker

This is one of my favorite paintings, done in…1979?

Getting a version from ChatGPT took a lot of work. A dozen iterations and it's still not exactly what I want, but it's damn close.

For some reason it really wanted to put the guy in the road instead of off to one side.  The trouble is, with each generation it changes the car itself.

By the time I finally got the perspective right, and the hitchhiker the proper distance down the road, the vehicle had completely morphed into something that bore little resemblance to my original painting.

Maybe the guy just can't get picked up, and these are all separate cars…

AI Art Strikes Again

Original photo, looking like death warmed over.

I honestly don't hate these. I was using the cartoon prompt.

"Disney Prince"
"Engage."

For these I used the prescripted "costume" prompt:

"Explorer" (Love the braids!)
"Robin Hood"
"Pharaoh"
"DJ" (without a turntable in sight!)
"Hacker"

These are a little more…interesting. Or is problematic the word I'm looking for?

I love the random generation of heterochromia here (not to mention the fact that 40 years got shaved off just like THAT!)

They are cute. I'll hand them that.

I don't even know what the hell is going on here.
I believe the term "pencil neck" is appropos here
And lastly, he's cute. I'd date him. (I *wish* I had a head of hair like that again.)

The program I used is called Photoleap.
