Autumn leaves, crackling fires, quokkas and puffins at the Bluestocking.

A new thread - with apologies to the gerbils for leaving them out of the title.

And now the AI is making me eat vegetables by the looks of that soup!

<cries in a corner>

Wait! Have I had a Donald upglow whilst I wasn't paying attention?

I asked for the Donald upglow for the alien. Copilot resisted with all its might, it wouldn't show an image of our alien overlords, and when it did show an alien it was a classic one from the 1940s. I asked it to make the skin of the alien orange, but then of course it got rid of the beetle. I did not ask for soup. In fact I've never asked for soup! Nobody wants soup! But with the return of the beetle came the soup 😬

It took ten goes to get it to make any kind of image. It kept pretending that its image generator was broken. Lies!

I was quite impressed that with my very basic misspelt request the AI went for a Donald shade of orange and a Donald hair style!

ETA sigh! Click on image for the prompt wording!

ETA as well: so it's your turn for the repeated does not compute message tonight.

I asked it for a mug that looks like a cake. Not sure how you actually drink out of them.

So then I went for a cake that looks like a mug...

My faves.

Love 'em all. The last two are probably the most practical. Although the cake on the 2nd one seems to be decorated with a strawberry, an unripe strawberry and a couple of scrotums. Some of the others would work better if the handle was for a right handed person. Although you might poke your eye out if you took a big swig, then there's washing them.

I thought I was weird for seeing those things on the cake as onions...

I love them too. I think the first ones are actually cakes in the shape of mugs, so you're eat them rather than trying to drink out of them. I may be wrong, but we'd have fun testing my hypothesis. And if I'm right, no washing up

This is great. Should definitely be on products.

Boily, I'm still getting 4 images on Microsoft. Sometimes it does 1,2 or 3 but it's usually 4. Microsoft Image Creator.

I'm not sure anyone would want a mug based on my user name.

Although as I recall there were some very pretty patterns when we went through the decorative chocolate phase.

Also, me, I want soup! It's brass monkeys in my house.

Ohh! So they moved it to somewhere else!

Thank you

@Chersfrozenface it wouldn't let me do it with cher in the name

I'm a happier beetle once more! Not totally happy but Co Pilot is dead to me now!!

Best efforts so far - if I say 'frozen' I get the animation. No idea what the words mean in the first one.

I suppose I could just get a Frozen film mug and some felt tip pens.

Can't do an AI image due to Cher and Frozen.

I'm a difficult woman, evidently. Not that that's a bad thing.

Team Iccy.

The mug for when you've got flu. Or Covid. Or a hangover.

Yep. Everyone needs one of those.

So I tried Team Face & got...

File sizes are small though, aren't they?

Warned you. It was all about the conquest with him. Glad I got out when I did.

And then all the women rejected him. And he was sad.

End of story

I want those mugs so badly, @ifIwerenotanandroid - I love cherry blossom.

I am having to face the fact that I might have to stop drinking as much coffee as I do. I usually have a mug of coffee that holds over a pint, and drink it gradually until teatime. This Monday, I had a small cup of coffee at knitting, and then no more for the rest of the day, and my blood sugars dropped dramatically, so I did some reading, and caffeine can increase insulin resistance and make blood sugar higher.

On the positive side, if cutting out all but a small mug of coffee a day will lower my blood sugars, that's a good thing - but I am awful when not caffeinated. We are going to try 50:50 caff and decaff, and see if that helps.

I didn't know that Woley. Thank you- I will mention it to DH, who drinks a lot of coffee.

Didn't know that, either. I drink decaff these days (tea & coffee) since someone told me caffeine leads to drier eyes - & I've been using drops for dry eyes for decades. I didn't want anything to make them worse.

I want those mugs so badly, - I love cherry blossom.

I wish we could have some of these mugs in real life.

I asked the AI for plum blossom, as cracking ice & plum blossom is a symbol of spring IIRC, in Japanese art. Someone once told me that the difference between plum & cherry blossom in art is that plum blossom petals are rounded while cherry blossom petals have a little dent in the top, making them heart shaped.💗
