Bored. Felt cute. Ran my favorite cartoon through Ai.
The first is DALL-E, the next four through MJ with text prompt, and the last four include an image of the original cartoon in the prompt. I used Firefly to remove text and text balloons from the renders.
Some great images, especially the first two, but I don't think any of them top to original, which is posted at the end.
The prompt:
/imagine prompt:https://s.mj.run/zaJ7A2Demls man in tattered busines suit sitting in from of a campfire, talking to children, surrounded by apocalyptic wasteland. He says "Yes, the planet got destroyed. But for a beautiful moment in time we created a lot of value for shareholders." --ar 1:1
https://s.mj.run/zaJ7A2Demls has the a coarse version of the original cartoon image at https://www.newyorker.com/cartoon/a16995 (which wasn't dated) and https://condenaststore.com/featured/the-planet-got-destroyed-tom-toro.html (which was dated)
