When I mentioned to someone commenting on my blog what I went through to produce an AI image to go with my Scavenger Hunt post, she encouraged me to show her, so here it is. This took me much longer than the original post, I must say, and even longer to create the image with AI.
My message to AI: Can you draw me a photo of a man running dow the street with a. small bonsai in his knapsack and carrying a basket of other small assorted items.
Can you make it more realistic? An actual picture?
Can you put buildings behind him and a street in front of him?
Can you put the small bonsai and knapsack back in ?
No make it more realistic like the first photo. And remove the tree from the sidewalk and put it in his knapsack.
And take out the big tree in back and put the bonsai back in his backpack.
No, Use the same photo as the one before this one with a small bonsai in his knapsack and no other bonsai.
But include the basket full of other items as well.
No, use the last photo, please but add the building, the bonsai
in the backpack and the basket full of other small items.
Good, but put the small bonsai back in his backpack.
Thanks..This will do.
to my “Scavenger Hunt” post. Phew!!!!!


Really interesting and creative use of AI, which is such a mystery to me. I was fascinated by the pictures and what they perhaps show about AI. Don’t ask me to define that. Obviously you spent a lot of time on that. thanks!

Judy, I’ve had similar successes and failures, but I suspect that it will eventually get better.

Too funny. But as the other commented, I suspect it will get better which for good or for bad is to be seen. Good post Judy. Very interesting.

Hi, I too struggle a lot to get some image from the AI. Keep instructing this way and that way, until you get fed up, and settle with one the results by cropping, erasing, etc. This is what I do. I use Gemini Plus or Copilot for my stuff.

It’s kind of a game, isn’t it?

Great work – nothing is ever that simple is it?

That was fun seeing how many times you had to do those instructions. I don’t even know where you find where to do the AI stuff.
