I may have some more ChatGPT art to post tomorrow. Depends on how a new job goes that I have orientation for this afternoon.

On that note, would like to humbly ask for prayer. My finances are in ruin, have had to resort to a GoFundMe to pay the rent and I did NOT want to do that. My dog had emergency medical attention and... well, she's like my child. You know how it goes. God has brought us through a lot already. He has brought me through more than twenty years of bipolar disorder and all the grief that comes with that. I know He can bring us through this too. Just need to ask for some intercessory prayer right now.

The day will come we won’t even know what is true from watching videos on the news.

They could fabricate any sort of person to frame a politician, perhaps even fabricate politicians??? Even make it look like they are at a certain place.

I like to say we thought A.I. would create cheap electricity from Fusion and cure cancer. Instead it looks like it will make images of Black Royalty and other woke drivel to push the Marxist cause.

Thanks for sharing. Utterly amazing, especially the Renaissance oil paintings come to life. I love the “Girl With Earring” one.

Just think where this will be in five or ten years.

Digital lies. This so called AI is just another poison to push on the human race. Take a big drink of this deception and see where is takes you.

Coming soon
But officer I was never near that place, I never said that, I didn't do that...

We have you on video and video NEVER LIES.

Could you give us more than one of the memes for those like me who have never been on the X twitter?

AI is getting good but a keen eye - so far - can easily tell the fake from the real.

There is a photo going around of a couple of Bald Eagles with a nest full of babies. Looks so super cute... except the babies are miniature adults. Not with scarce dark feathers like when they really are babies.

Seems so sweet but even if you know what a baby Bald Eagle really looks like, the pic looks manufactured.

There is an extended sequence during the last Indiana Jones movie that used AI to digitally de-age Harrison Ford so it looked like him in his early forties. It looked pretty good (about the only thing that WAS good about that movie) but even so there was telltale artifacting that cued you in on it being digitally manipulated.

Will it ever get so good that it becomes impossible to tell a fake image or video from a real one? To be honest, I don't know. Makes one wonder what kind of tools will be needed to indubitably distinguish them apart.

The first altered meme is the "distracted boyfriend" one. In the AI-enhanced video the guy moves toward the other woman but his girlfriend pulls him back.

The second meme is "disaster girl" and she's now laughing hard at the flames and destruction in the background.

The third one is a sequence of clips showing Mona Lisa trying on various hats, sunglasses, facemask etc.

Fourth one is "Girl with a Pearl Earring" drinking tea, then checking her smartphone, etc.

Fifth is Justin Timberlake (from his mugshot photo) drinking a beer.

Sixth one is famous paintings brought to live (pretty disturbing).

Seventh clip is various Japanese paintings of beautiful women animated.

I'm not sure where the last one is from, it's of a young girl putting on sunglasses.

This was predicted in the movies The Running Man and Total Recall

This will be difficult to master; however, if I do, I may be able to not only write that novel, but make a movie of it.

It loses its effect in animation. Memes work better when they engage the imagination.

With CGI we could still tell it was fake but with A I we are near the point where we can’t believe our eyes.

The propagandist’s dream come true.
