I am fascinated by AI pictures. I don’t have a clue how they are done. But I am mesmerized by them. Especially the retro nostalgic ones like the one you shared. They have a certain magic about them.
They are very easy to create. The ones I have posted here are from Google Gemini, just type Google Gemini in the address bar of any browser or the input of any search engine. Then follow the link. If you have a Google account you can sign in; I think that you might have to, to generate an image. Even a free account gives something like 50 AI credits a day, and most pictures like my Rockwell style images use only 1 or 2 credits. But I think that if you don't sign in that the Chatbot will not do anything that requires a credit.
So, after creating a free Google account, you just key in your prompt in the box under “How can I help you?”. The prompt that I used for the image in this thread was “create a rockwell style image of an ai robot father getting into a vintage car to commute to his office job.”
The image that I got back first had only the dad shown as a robot, so I went on to ask for the mom, the boy, and the dog to be robots as well. Then I asked for a robot cat to be added.
In a few seconds an image shows up, and you can download the image by hovering over the top right corner of the picture and left clicking on the download button that appears.
There are lots of other tricks that you can use in your prompts to improve your results, but I thought that these images turned out pretty well without any fancy stuff.
I have to admit that I have been trying out Google AI Pro which gives 5TB of Google Drive for $2.99 a month which gives me more images than I would ever use in a day along with quite a few other benefits that I have not been taking advantage of. Next month it will revert to its normal $19.95 a month, so I will probably dump it.
