Well that robot looks sooo steam punk.
Well we're actually mostly using steam punk tech, like nuclear reactor boiling water to make steam to turn turbines.
Not that combustion engines are any more advanced, is very similar to steam powered engines.
Two of may all time favorite games, Thief 2 and American McGee's Alice are pretty steampunk influenced. I've grown to quite appreciate the genre, but I hate those stupid goggles they wear!
But the mermaid and fairy myths have been so sweetly sentimentalized over the years people forget that they were originally quite ambivalent towards humans in the old myths. Both sweet and nasty at times. I just find it fun to do something with the less cutesy side of mermaids and fairies.

So Sora is now available to the public, here's a few of my experiments

Ideogram model 2.0 is better at representing real people than 1.0, although they need to be really famous for it to render a good likeness.
That pic would turn on all the women on the Night Cafe website for sure.
It's definitely fun using all the fancy cutting edge AI generators but I discovered by accident that the most basic and primitive AI generators can produce some good Impressionist style paintings, better than the more sophisticated generators
And if you don't understand the appeal of such blurry, dream like pictures, well most of the art critics of the time didn't understand them either.

lol, like they're not full of them already
Meta plans to fill Facebook and Instagram with AI-generated users that will exist on its platforms similar to real humans.
In an interview with the Financial Times, the vice-president of product for generative AI at Meta Connor Hayes says he expects the AIs to interact on Meta’s platforms in the same way standard accounts do.
“They’ll have bios and profile pictures and be able to generate and share content powered by AI on the platform,” he says. “That’s where we see all of this going.”
The AI-generated accounts will be part of a plethora of AI tools Meta is rolling out. Hayes says hundreds of thousands of avatars have already been created with the AI character tool. It was released in the U.S in July and will be launched in the rest of the world at some point in 2025.
Meta hopes that these new AI characters on the platfrom will help drive engagement on Facebook and Instagram but there is a risk that these types of accounts will fall flat by pumping out low quality content that contains misinfromation, alientating human users.
“Without robust safeguards, platforms risk amplifying false narratives through these AI-driven accounts,” Becky Owen, former head of Meta’s creator innovations team and global chief marketing and innovation officer at creative agency Billion Dollar Boy, tells the Financial Times.
“Unlike human creators, these AI personas don’t have lived experiences, emotions, or the same capacity for relatability.”
Meta All In on AI
Meta, like every other major tech company, is investing big in artificial intelligence. In October, it rankled artists when it suggested users could deploy its AI tool to artificially adds aurora lights into pictures.

Much of the AI tools big tech are offering are designed to lower the creative barrier, such as Meta’s AI advertising tools that animates still pictures alongside its AI image generator and AI video generator platforms.
“Meta needs to continue to make investments in its platforms, it cannot rest on its laurels and I’m personally proud of Meta for making advancements in AI and continuing to lower the barrier to entry for advertisers,” says CEO of MikMak Rachel Tipograph.

They're gonna end up nuking the platform in the name of 'engagement'

That didn't last long
Gotta love the terrified backtracking too
Meta promptly deleted several of its own AI-generated accounts after human users began engaging with them and posting about the bots’ sloppy imagery and tendency to go off the rails and even lie in chats with humans.In particular, there was “Liv,” the Meta AI account that has a bio describing itself as a “Proud Black queer momma of 2 & truth-teller,” and told Washington Post columnist Karen Attiah that Liv had no Black creators — the bot said it was built by “10 white men, 1 white woman, and 1 Asian male,” according to a screenshot posted on Bluesky. Liv’s profile included a label that read “AI managed by Meta,” and all of Liv’s photos — snapshots of Liv’s “children” playing at the beach, a close-up of badly decorated Christmas cookies — contained a small watermark identifying them as AI-generated.
As media scrutiny ticked up Friday, Meta began taking down Liv and other bots’ posts, many of which dated back at least a year, citing a “bug.”“There is confusion,” Meta spokesperson Liz Sweeney told CNN in an email. “The recent Financial Times article was about our vision for AI characters existing on our platforms over time, not announcing any new product.”
Sweeney said the accounts were “part of an early experiment we did with AI characters.”
She added: “We identified the bug that was impacting the ability for people to block those AIs and are removing those accounts to fix the issue.”One, called “Grandpa Brian,” described itself in a chat with CNN as an African-American retired entrepreneur who was born in Harlem in 1938 to Caribbean immigrant parents.
It became clear early on in the conversation that “Brian” was lying about most things — answering questions with a fictionalized story imparted by developers to make the bot seem authentic.She can take me under anytime
