I don't think I need to create a new thread, seeing as I've already created one related to the Playwrights, EC. I'm still expecting him to want to do some work on them, at least in terms of using the team name for a place in Ontario, after all. And, of course, I don't ever want to flood the Graphics forums, at least, with certain personal requests any more than I absolutely have to again, like I no doubt unintentionally did around them before to get a lot of people upset with me, you know.

I have been trying to collect a lot of AI art lately, at least for purposes of potential inspiration when it comes to various projects of mine, seeing as I can't really draw well, and my current stream of consciousness when it comes to such AI art, mainly, is along the lines of Power Rangers and/or Super Sentai, for instance. Unfortunately, AI art hasn't really gotten the knack of doing hands properly when it creates imagery from text prompts, you see, for example. So it's been rather difficult at times to get imagery created that is sufficiently usable for inspiration and all, to be sure.

When you try to get pictures of baseball players in uniforms and caps and all done properly, for instance, AI-generated art often messes up text on them, as well, unfortunately. Even when you try to give it suitably specific prompts within a certain number of characters, it often adds or omits letters, or it makes things look rather weird, like caps, for instance, so that that they don't necessarily look just like they should at times, for sure.

I don't think it matters much what AI art generator many people may use, in many cases, at least. But there is a lot of improvement still needed in certain areas of art rendition abilities before AI-generated art can look sufficiently like real art to make it virtually impossible for nearly everyone, if not everyone, to know what images are real and which are fake in the future for this world. Someday that day will come, no doubt, where that will be the case, but not today, and at this time, I probably shouldn't venture further along this line of discussion here. Simply because it might otherwise lead into discussions of certain kinds of subjects that are currently not well-received here on the forums, I think, by various people around here.

However, if anyone possibly wants to discuss any and/or all potential ramifications of AI-generated content more with me, they are free to PM me and I might then be willing to discuss them later with them, at least at some length or to some degree, of course. Or not, as the case might be, obviously enough, at times.

AI is a tool that still needs a lot of work to function properly in many situations, and to be used properly, for sure, in any case. It still can't compare sufficiently well in many respects to what humans can do and have done in this world of ours, and I think that may very well be a good thing here. That's simply because it shows that we are still much more able to do many more things naturally than what our own creations have yet been able to do, if not everything, because we can think and imagine, among other things. As for them, they can't still live and experience things sufficiently well just like we humans all have and can and will, in this world of ours, seeing as they're nonbiological and inanimate objects, and can still only create based on what we have programmed them to be able to do, for sure.

As I said, I'll try to get some more graphics done and posted here as soon as possible, but it may still be a while yet, for various reasons, folks. Don't expect them to be posted here for at least another week or so, most likely, unless I'm sufficiently inspired and all, before then. And that probably won't be before 20_range finishes working on Stratford here for me, if others don't contribute graphics for them as well here, of course, at least. Just so you all know this here well enough, in any case, to be sure. CD out.
