Absolutely incredible.
I never knew this was a thing until my 30's, I just had little boxes covering the margins of all my notebooks.
That's beautiful work, dude/dudette. I'd be pleased to have that as my notebook cover; you've some real skill, there.
hah, thanks, tho it's kind of the opposite of work. I had about 3.5hrs of zoom calls that particular day, and if my hands aren't doing something there's absolutely zero chance of me staying tuned in.
Huh as someone with ADHD I need to try that.
I drew this in roughly twenty minutes with a peice of scrap paper and a broken pen held together by a hair tie, I think it counts (im not very good at doodling)

What you posted shows the opposite.
Thanccs :3
AI: Here! Scrape this one too. We'll make a soulless copy.
You don't have a soul you're a neural net in a flesh bag that regurgitates what others say and do.
does this count?
Yep!
Why do the pencils look fake?
That's easy to say when you can doodle that well, fuck I ain't even gonna try much less compete.
OP didn't come out the pussy drawing Mozart.
Not bad for two minutes of work
Do you take constructive criticism?
Dang, I really dig how it neither looks like a real napkin nor a real drawing. The table behind it looks good though.
A few days ago I saw a comment say something like "what if I poured my heart and soul into the prompt to get the AI to generate exactly what I imagined in my head?"
To that I say: "None of that emotion will be translated by the AI. It would be more artistic for you to try your best and still make something that doesn't at all resemble what you imagined, because at least you actually put yourself into it, making it actually art and not just what amounts to a corporate logo."
I think this question sidesteps something even more fundamental. Pouring your heart and soul into describing a world through words is creative writing, and obviously has artistic merit in and of itself. Why is creative writing such an apparently unworthy art form, that all of that effort would be better off tossed into the trash, and replaced by a machine generation based upon it instead?
If you genuinely have the desire and capacity to write in depth about worlds, and things that happen within them, simply posting that writing would be wonderful. Visual mediums are not the end all be all of artistic expression, or human communication in general. I write comments and express my ideas through words all the time, and I appreciate when humans do the same for me in return.
Because in this case, they're writing a prompt. Prompts for AI aren't exactly creative writing. They're basically a series of keywords or tags. Figuring out which keywords work to get the thing to generate what you want isn't really creative, either.
