Old joke, but still-

If you ever feel your job is meaningless... Just remember that it's somebody's job to install turn signals to BMW's

These signs **** me off:



How about putting them outside the White House and changing them to read "Don't accept bribe money from foreign governments"? Since when do we need to tell people random laws? I'd love to see "Don't murder people" in a city. It would be just as effective.

Mind sharing which engine you used to produce these?


I did these with Dall-E 2, trying to match your aesthetic:

I'd like to see what an AI would render as a cat's evolved "hand"--fingers and opposable thumb, with fur and claws.

Random finds.

Also this is offensive

Given how much trouble these programs have drawing normal human hands, it's unsurprising that I'm having some difficulty getting it to create what you're describing.

My best efforts thus far:

Telling the program that the cat in question is a cyborg, rather counterintuitively, makes the output less creepy.

Take a brief pause from posting photos of William Gibson's cat, to recognize that the 20th anniversary edition of Badger Badger was released a few days ago.




Yes, it has been twenty years.





Mushroom, mushroom, my internet friends. A snake.

There have been some epically good parodies over the years.

This one demands good speakers or headphones. And also an appreciation of bad early-80s sci-fi.



Fun fact: Brian May (of Queen, who did the soundtrack to the 1980 Flash Gordon film) actually contributed a guitar track to this silly video.
