Look, I made you something gorgeous.

Technically, an AI system made it, but I helped so doesn't that count for something??

First and foremost, the winners of my little newsletter giveaway have been notified. (Megan, Nick, and Crystal, I’m talking to you specifically.) Even if you did not win (sad!!!) I still love and appreciate your support of this newsletter.

I recently got access to DALL-E, the perfectly-named AI system that can create original art from a text description. For example, “funfetti cake floating in the ocean at sunset,” the result of which is pictured above. The program is impressive and terrifying and has led me to find my true calling: art-directing robots to make dumb, pretty pictures.

In many ways, a newsletter is a digital refrigerator. Thus, I will be displaying all my beautiful creations for you to ponder, applaud, celebrate, throw away when I’m not looking, etc. But! I am also in my Bridge Troll Era and must turn anything and everything into a game. Riddle-dee-dee, etc. Below, I will show you a picture made by DALL-E and you must use your big, big brain to figure out what my prompt was. Forewarning: Some will be unsatisfying! Do not blame me! Blame the robots!!!

The answers will be directly below the picture so just, like, scroll slowly.
