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:”

“What the Hell Did We Just Watch?”

About a third of the way in, you’ll find yourself asking, “WTF did I get myself into?” and ponder whether it’s better to cut your losses and shut it off, or continue on and hope it starts to make sense.

By the end of the flick, you’ll probably be glad you stuck with it, but you’ll still be asking yourself, “What the FUCK did I just watch?” It will start to make some sense, and you may actually come to find out you really loved it. (Or at least loved it enough that you’ll write a blog post about it and recommend it to your friends.)

Mark My Words…

They are itching to get this whole matter before the Supreme Court in hopes of creating a “Final Solution.”

Did anyone seriously think they were going to stop with abortion rights? I don’t think it’s too hyperbolic to say they these MAGA nutjob Republicans have wet dreams of reinstating slavery and straight white male ownership of everything.

Can’t tell you how many times this happened on my commutes in San Francisco on a packed MUNI train.

Reminds Me…

…of the “comfort station” at the end of Judah Street in San Francisco.

In fact, it might very well  be the “comfort station” at the end of Judah Street!
