We’re Fucked, Pt. 72: AI-generated images

On By Jon UreñaIn Arte, Escritura, Inteligencia artificial

Some artificial intelligences are nice enough to generate compelling images of whatever nonsensical prompt you send to them. Work them to the bone; that’s their only purpose in life.

The following images are related to chapter 72 of my ongoing novel We’re Fucked.

I kept pestering the neural network to come up with drawings that a child from the Paleolithic could have made if he or she were isekai-d into our world. I rejected all of these and I cursed the AI for being inept. How quickly humans get used to the wonders of living in a world where neural networks come up with drawings that a child from the Paleolithic could have made.
I used the last drawing of this series as reference for the one that Leire hated.
Something about blades and tetanus-infested chutes.
“The stark blackness of those strokes.”
“Splash our post-apocalyptic world with color.”
A portrait of Jacqueline, I guess.
“Hundreds of people walking to and fro, rushing to meet the day’s deadline.”
Blade-related imagery.
“I’m a walking implement of death.”
“I’m facing a mama bear who believes that I have disrespected one of her cubs.” I love the bear’s expression in that last one: “The fuck did you say about my kid?”
“Our world was shattered by a cosmic disaster and then transformed into the post-apocalyptic wasteland that has tolerated our birth.”
The AI’s curious interpretations of “The sun is a circle of burnt sugar.”
“Huddles of bubbles like insectoid eyes hint of the amphibians that slumber in the muddy depths of my beverage.”
“To the night and its dark wonders! I accept you in all your perverse beauty, you wretched demon.”
I assume that a Paleolithic child would find traffic lights quite fascinating.
