That's really cool dude I think AI is an amazing tool that can help all of us

[@joshsowin]

Thanks! I think so too, it certainly helps me do things I could have never in a million years done before. I know that’s really scary for a lot of people though.

[@interrobangfund]

❤ it's so good!!!!

[@joshsowin]

aww thanks em 😊

[@mariannesowin9628]

I wish I had a pet jellybean

[@joshsowin]

brb, ordering you one now

[@3nickyboyk]

Why not try learning how to draw? It would have gotten your brain going, no?

[@joshsowin]

I mean that’s cool too. That’s not my interest, right now I’m learning gen AI stuff, but learning to draw is great too!

[@3nickyboyk]

​@@joshsowin But why learn generating with AI when you can learn generating with your mind? You already do the latter when you write out your story.

[@joshsowin]

@@3nickyboykbecause I’m enjoying learning prompting techniques, playing with new tech, and focusing on composition, colors, consistency, style, etc. plus even if I spent 10 years leaning 3d modeling, color theory, interior design, etc I still couldn’t make images this cool 😅

[@joshsowin]

@@3nickyboyk but if you want to make stuff like this manually I’m all for it, would love to see what you do! It’s just not my interest or skillset personally.

[@3nickyboyk]

@@joshsowin You must have more faith in yourself! With enough diligence, I am sure you would make images twice as cool and in only five years.

You could’ve just… hired an illustrator? AI is garbage dude, it requires more energy to utilize than thousands of households could use yearly. It’s not worth it, just pay somebody.

[@joshsowin]

But that’s not fun, and no one’s making or losing money from this. It’s just a silly book for a friend where I got to play with new tools which is a good way to keep up my brain. Delegating that to someone else doesn’t do that. As for energy usage, everything we do takes energy, including us watching videos and commenting here. Sorry if it offended you though!

[@joshsowin]

And also thanks for commenting, even though you disagree. I appreciate it.
