Most of the time some people have a fear in them that something might go terribly wrong if they start having a good time. And it's not really their fault. Most of the time, it's their past experiences which make them doubt if they're worthy of that happiness or not. Deep down they don't take life for living it, they takes as they have to survive it.
regarding this post (which is now unrebloggable even though I somehow just reblogged it?) I do think that there was something compelling about older AI art
I miss when it was just neuralblender-type stuff - nothing was really recognizable, and it made for some fun images! like:
"Destroy who you are for who you can become"
"Consume me, you metal beast of my own making"
(this is a Scooby Doo quote btw)
"I"ll take care of you."
"It's rotten work."
"Not to me. Not if it's you."
"After the storm, I see again a weasel"
and, my favorite one:
"We're not lost; we're on an adventure!"
this sort of thing was really fun to mess around with! there are still copyright issues ofc - AI should only train on art from people who've opted-in, or stuff from the public domain - but the vagueness of these images is somewhat transformative, and they're never going to look exactly like whatever art they trained on.
and hey, half the fun was just seeing what exactly it did with things like, say...the entire 13th chapter of Twilight
