Bing can generate AImusic now This Ai stuff is a wild ride, such an amazing creative future. Can’t wait to experiment with this.
Here was the suggested example that Bing told me to try…
So as a kid I had lots of dreams, stuff like Artist, musician, film maker, athlete, writer. I find it kinda amazing that at 41 years old I can suddenly fulfill some of my dreams through Bing. One of my smaller dreams was to be a newspaper comic strip artist. With Bing I’ve made tons of Calvin and Hobbes, Peanuts images this year. Recently I started experimenting with “far side comic style”… as in the old “The Far Side” comic strip.
I’m probably going to make this a daily thing or until I run out of Far Side ideas
https://x.com/AddictiveAI/status/1780748996014686597
Should I think of a name for my new Daily Comic?
I’ve been thinking of some ideas but haven’t settled on anything
The Side Far
The AI Side
The Far Side AI
Settled on a name and format. Hopefully the commitment of a daily comic strip doesn’t become overwhelming
