I thought I would ask about the new spin on artistic expression, Generative AI!

One post required but feel free to reply to your peers!

Create an AI image using Dall-E! https://labs.openai.com/

Share a story from ChatGPT https://chat.openai.com/chat

Picture from https://thispersondoesnotexist.xyz/ – This person does not exist is a website that creates random people’s faces using artificial intelligence. Create as many images as you want and download them for free at high resolution.

What did the AI create based on your request? Was this your first experience using GenerativeAI?
Have you used ChatGPT or other AI websites before?
What are your feelings on the use of Generative AI?
Cons of Artistic AI? Job loss? 

Most of this information I have also saved on my website in the section library Future

I am a newbie to this since January 2022 and I realize most of this information has been around since 2018 with the release og GPT1 but really it has been very popular in fall of 2022. GPT 3 was introduced to the world in 2020. ChatGPT 4 was released on March 14, 2023.
