I made this for fun: a cover for a story about Roulette, Alex Reeve's French mercenary partner from FINAL TRAITOR. Should I write it for real?

I finally found a good use for AI: creating images of merchandising that doesn't exist but should!

Came up with a good use for AI: making fake holiday snaps to slip into people's photo collections. "Where was this one taken? I don't remember these people..."

My son is giving me a running commentary on the Legend of Zelda game he's playing on his Switch, and it's like Mark E Smith lyrics at their most impenetrable. "Level two flux construct battle in the Sky Archipelago-uh. Bokoblin sage-uh."

Bizarre phrasing from BBC News; the companies doing this are not the "victims", they're the culprits!

Background research for my next novel is requiring me to read The Building Safety Act 2022 and The Building Safety (Leaseholder Protections) (England) Regulations 2022, and I'm losing the will to live. ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

It's a sign of the squalid moral bankruptcy of the Tory party that its cruel, illegal and expensive Rwandan deportation bill might be blocked by a group of Tory MPs who think it isn't cruel, illegal and expensive enough.

Emerald Boy is totally not-mad that the chatbot he wanted to go in the top-right corner ended up in the opposite one. ("Politically neutral", yeah, sure.)

The world's richest man could end global hunger and still be a multi-billionaire. But it's more important to him that his new AI use racial slurs. ๐Ÿ™„

I see Argentina is the latest country to go, "Our nation faces many deep-rooted and complex problems. Hey, maybe this bellowing right-wing clown with bad hair has all the answers!"

Er, are you sure that's what you meant to say, Bing? Because Wikipedia doesn't agree, and I'm sure the Jamaican tourist board wouldn't either!

Braverman fired? That's a good start to the week. ๐ŸŽ‰ Now I guess we'll see if we reached the bottom of the barrel labelled "Cruel, stupid authoritarian racists" or if the Tories have more stacked under it from which to choose their new Home Secretary.

If you've used Bing Image Creator for more than five minutes, you'll recognise this capricious little bastard and wish him nothing but ill.

If there's a better use for Bing Image Creator than making silly pictures of Batman, I don't know it.
