  • Mary Had a Little Lamb

    Mary Had a Little Lamb

    In the course of trying to debug some issues with Gemini, I gave it a simple prompt to make an audio track: Create a track where someone is “singing” Mary had a little lamb with farts “The Gassy Flute Lament” Not exactly what I had in mind, but fun enough to share here.

    Mistakes

    At the bottom of the web interface for Gemini is the disclaimer “Gemini is AI and can make mistakes.” It’s a typical “cover your butt” statement – a warning that AI can mistakes. But how about trying to make Gemini make mistakes? Make a short childhood nursery rhyme but fill it will all sorts of…

    In the Public Domain, Part 1

    Mindful of the use of copyrighted materials in AI, I decided to do some experiments in Gemini using recognizable characters out of copyright. Make a list of 15 recognizable characters which are now out in the public domain. Include the date that they went into the public domain. It returned the following list: Character Entry…

Record a track for the following lyrics that looks like it was recorded by the singers on the Lawrence Welk variety show “May I have your attention please? May I have your attention please? Will the…

  • Sylvester the Salamander

    Sylvester the Salamander

    Started my day with some AI experiments. Decided to see what Gemini could do with a random prompt to write poetry: Write a short poem about a salamander named Sylvester who goes to the moon. It created this little beauty: Sylvester was a spotted soul, With skin of damp and mossy coal. He grew quite…

    While working on creating images for this website, I thought about asking the AI (in this case Google’s Gemini) to create a selfie image. These are what it created: As it stated quite clearly at the start of this effort “Since I am an AI and don’t have a physical body, I can’t actually take a selfie…
