I wanted to see if I could create a sci-fi story that revolved around a product that Midjourney usually sucks at creating. But this time... hey... not bad Prompt:  Create an action-filled sci-fi story about two people drinking Coca Cola Here we go "Battles, Blasts, and Coca Cola: The Intergalactic Adventure" In the year 2249, humanity had long since colonized other planets in the galaxy. Among the pioneers were two scientists, Dr. Ava Lee and Dr. David Chen. They had just finished an experiment on a distant planet and were taking a break in their spaceship.  Dr. Lee took a sip of her Coca Cola and sighed contentedly. Dr. Chen grinned at her. "That good, huh?" Dr. Lee nodded. "It always hits the spot. You want some?" Dr. Chen shook his head. "Nah, I'm good. I'm more of a Pepsi guy myself." As they bantered back and forth, an alarm blared through the spaceship. They scrambled to their feet and rushed to the control panel. A message blinked ...

This week I am going to Disneyland with my family. We go almost every year and though my kids are no longer small, it is still one of my favorite things to do.  This brings me to my next adventure in AI. Imagining Disney Princesses as middle-aged women in modern society. I used ChatGPT to create the story imaging these princesses as modern middle-aged suburban wives and then asked Midjourney to supply some portraits to help our imagination. Once upon a time in ideal suburbia... "Snow White and the Seven Kids: A Modern Fairy Tale"   Snow White Once upon a time, there was a stressed-out middle-aged suburban housewife named Snow White. She had seven children, a husband who worked long hours, a broken-down minivan, and a waistline that seemed to expand with every passing day. Her once youthful beauty had faded, and she struggled to manage the daily demands of running her household. Snow White's days were spent shuttling her children to school and extracurricular activities, g...

On Saturdays and Sundays, I usually take over the kitchen and cook. My youngest often says that what I make is "all the same". So this week, I decided to see what would happen if I asked ChatGPT to give me a recipe using ingredients I want to use. Here is what it looked like My ask: Create a recipe using the following ingredients: Chicken thighs, carrots, yellow onions, maple syrup, soy sauce, ginger paste, garlic paste, red pepper garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, basil, and parsley. Other ingredients may be recommended. No brown sugar. ChatGPT's recipe: Here's a recipe for Ginger-Soy Glazed Chicken Thighs with Carrots and Onions: Ingredients: - 4-6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs - 2 cups carrots, peeled and sliced into rounds - 2 medium yellow onions, sliced - 1/4 cup maple syrup - 1/4 cup soy sauce - 1 tablespoon ginger paste - 1 tablespoon garlic paste - 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon onion powder - Sal...

I started working on Midjourney to see what it can do and over time I want to compare it to other platforms offering AI image development. Getting set up in Midjourney is not hard nor does it take time but it is a full-year subscription for the basic at $98. As an initial step, I played with some work-related images which I won't show and some Harry Potter ideas but then wanted to see what it could do with some simple commands and mathematical-based functions; so Fractals! But not just ask for Fractals but for Fractals in specific artistic styles. Each image comes in a set of 4 and then you can choose to make an upscaled version of one or a variation of one of the 4. Here are 4 of the  2D minimalist Bauhaus fractals. I then only upscaled one. But I can upscale later at a later time if you choose. a 2D minimalist bauhaus fractal I liked this pattern and I would want to explore more in this style. Now let's go into the realm of Salvador Dali, who is one of my favorite artists be...

This morning I saw a reel on Instagram about Harry Potter as if it took place in a Balenciaga Fashion School. There is also a version of Harry Potter as a 1980s Yakuza film .  この投稿をInstagramで見る SCREENSHOT(@screenshothq)がシェアした投稿 Then it got me thinking...in 2023, according to the Harry Potter series, he would be 43 years old this year.  I wondered, "What would Harry Potter's life be like in a mid-life crisis." So off to ChatGPT to ask it to be creative and write some stories about "Harry Potter and the Mid-Life Crisis". " Please write a script about Harry Potter in the style of a 1990s Sitcom. Include his wife Ginny, best friend Ron, Ron's wife Hermione and his neighbor Neville." INT. HARRY AND GINNY'S APARTMENT - DAY The door to the apartment opens and in walks HARRY POTTER, followed by his wife, GINNY. HARRY: (sighing) Another day at the Ministry of Magic. GINNY: (smiling) Cheer up, Harry. You always come home to your lo...
