We’ve mentioned the results of asking an AI (artificial intelligence) story generator to describe a visit to Waikanae, which was more than a little out (see earlier post). So we thought we’d try an AI photo generator and asked a free site (we can’t afford a pay one) for a picture of “a woman reading a book at Waikanae railway station.”
The results looked like a bad trip by the AI generator, in the drug-induced sense. Only a few of the 40 or so results could pass as a real scene, and none as Waikanae station. Samples below of the better ones. Oh well, just stay with the old fashioned method.



Dread to think how the next picture would look
The one we used has a ‘safe filter’ regarding that sort of thing, but there are sure to be pay versions which don’t.
