This is how I imagined the drop pods looking when I read Nightborn, with the core behind them.

Please return to traditional art. Please.
I never left. I've got a lot of projects going on at any given time. I'm working on Good Omens jewelry for metal 3D printing since I like modeling and have been meaning to learn how to convert that to print. Textgen AI is definitely taking the lion's share of my time at the moment, though.

If we agree that AI is incompetent and overhyped, does this mean we can stop villifying the regular people using it creatively? Not all people that love AI are tech bros drumming up marketshare. Some of us are just having fun with the new mediums.
Take away every consequential activity through which AI harms people, and all you’ve got left is low-margin activities like writing SEO garbage, lengthy reminisces about “the first time I ate an egg” that help an omelette recipe float to the top of a search result. Sure, you can put 95 percent of the commercial illustrators on the breadline, but their total wages don’t rise to one percent of the valuation of the big AI companies.
For those sky-high valuations to remain intact until the investors can cash out, we need to think about AI as a powerful, transformative technology, not as a better autocomplete.
We literally just sat through this movie, and it sucked. Remember when blockchain was going to be worth trillions, and anyone who didn’t get in on the ground floor could “have fun being poor?”
At the time, we were told that the answer to the problems of blockchain were exotic, new forms of regulation that accommodated the “innovation” of crypto. Under no circumstances should we attempt to staunch the rampant fraud and theft by applying boring old securities and commodities and money-laundering regulations. To do that would be to recognize that “fin-tech” is just a synonym for “unlicensed bank.”
The pitchmen who made out like bandits on crypto — leaving mom-and-pop investors holding the bag — are precisely the same people who are beating the drum for AI today.

An AI rendition of my favorite Good Omens cover art and an excuse to learn the latent couple extension. It took seven hours and I’m sure there are still things to fix, but I have to call it done at some point.

I love how many versions there are of Crowley and Aziraphale in the book’s cover art. I think this is one of the UK editions. The artist is Graham Ward.

*AI Art #Stable Diffusion
Here’s an untouched up preview of Aziraphale’s LoRA and example of the improvements over the textual inversion I’d been using previously. (TI on the left, LoRA on the right.) I’m seeing an increasing resemblance, it’s memorized his bow tie, his body type is heavier and less generic, he has his dimples, neck rolls, narrower shoulders, smaller eyes, and **plump hands** in one of them! Also much more likely to have his eyes open. I’m excited because this solves so much frustration I’d been having with the textual inversion alone.

The Ineffable duo now has LoRAs! In addition to improving resemblance, this should mean a softer, heavier Aziraphale.
