MORE AI ART
Aug. 5th, 2021 09:04 pmBut NOT Artbreeder this time! Thanks to Metafilter, I ran across this article on AI-generated art that had links to several Google Colab notebooks I could run to generate art.
What is a Google Colab? Uh, hell if I know, even though I was using one to do all the AI-generated text a couple of years back. But you can set it up to run programs and use computer power elsewhere for it, and people have kindly set them up with software that runs the AI-generated art. I shall not explain how they work otherwise because it would mostly be "Click this, this, and this, then type here, then click there."
You type in prompts, and it does its best to produce something using hat it thinks the prompts say. It is not a human, so quite often it has nothing to do with reality. There are a few tricks you can use to pull better stuff out of it, and since it was trained on internet data two of those tricks are to add "artstation" (or "trending on artstation") and "unreal engine" to your prompt.
( And it has produced some AWESOME results! )

Jul. 1st, 2021 01:58 pmContinuing to add words and patterns to the elevator pitch / blurb generator, also fixing typos.
Reminiscent of early Dan Brown.
This debut series is best described as a combination of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Fury Road, as written by Aliette de Bodard.

Like The Expanse, but with extra maps
Jun. 25th, 2021 03:53 pmThis might be the fastest concept-to-finish generator I've ever done, but the Elevator Pitch / Blurb Generator is done and live!
I was reading a book announcement on tor.com that described a book as being in the vein of two books that were as utterly unlike each other as...as...two unlike things. Naturally, I had to make a generator.
So! If you are a writer who needs inspiration, a publicist who is writing a press release, or an author who's been asked to blurb a book and you're lost for words...here you go! It tends to float between things that sound legitimate and things that take a left turn through WTF.
Do feel free to link away!
This debut work of fiction is best described as a combination of Aliens and Psycho, as written by Beatrix Potter.
A queer, ambitious page-turner, this series is what you'd get if Pamela Dean wrote Ice Planet Barbarians.

May. 20th, 2021 01:10 pmI'd linked to the Improved Zoe Chant Shifter Romance Generator elsewhere today, so was hitting the "Write the sequel!" button a few times and came up with:
(Also I'd forgotten I put "King of a Small European Country" in there. XD)
The King Of A Small European Country Tyrannosaurus Rex's Curvy WerewolfI can't help but think that the thing trying to tear them apart is Chicxulub...
One BBW werewolf + one tyrannosaurus rex shifter king of a small European country sworn to protect her with his life + a world trying to tear these fated mates apart with secrets to hide = one orgasmic romance that will be sure to make a wave!

Random generator
Dec. 8th, 2020 09:20 amAnd here it is, the generator I've been teasing for a week...the Epic Fantasy Random Title Generator. Have fun!
A Risen Rebel (Anthology of First Gardens #5)
Empire of Merchants
The Thorn Kings (The Deathless Avatar 4)
The Dale of Dead Maelstroms
Night of Fury (Fallow Isles 2)
The Bitter Apprentice
Iron in the Harrowed House (Duo of Heavenly Marshals #5)
I think the main way I can tell I got pretty close to the general realm of epic fantasy titles is that none of them are especially funny. I suppose they're all grimdark, hm? (After noticing that "Fish" drastically improved any title it appeared in, I seeded the noun list with 4 other words designed to produce a bit of humor occasionally, so there's a bit of lightness.)
