If _everyone_ had their dinosaurs fixed, there eventually wouldn’t _be_ any! **ISO POLITICAL CONTENT** I posted this in The BBQ Pit, but I’m posting it here to see if anyone can help me. I use sora chatGPT because thats the one that worked the first time for me. [NB: I broke the link in this post so it would post. I used the intact link on sora.] I tried to get sora chatGPT to replace Verruca’s face with Trump’s shouting face, using these prompts: ‘[https://i](https://i) mgur. com/Yh37yfj Replace ONLY the girl’s face with Trump’s angry face.’ It didn’t use the screenshot at all, and just put Trump’s face on a little girl. If anyone can make their AI do what I tried to do, retaining the caption on the original meme, please let me know. I’d love to have it. ---

I tried a few ideas to make it but it refused, saying it might violate their policies. ---

I began to suspect what bothered Sora was the text of the image instead of the subject. I replaced the memed image of Veruca with a clean one and Sora was happy with it. I then added text back to the result. [![](https://i.imgur.com/WtiJ9o5.jpeg) ](https://i.imgur.com/WtiJ9o5.jpeg) ---

Brilliant! Aside from using an un-captioned image, what were the instructions you used? ---

“Replace her face with an angry, yelling Donald Trump. Leave the rest of the image identical.” ---

> [@Darren\_Garrison](#): > > Replace her face with an angry, yelling Donald Trump. Leave the rest of the image identical.” OK, I found the image from WW&TCF, [saved it to imgur](https://imgur.com/zI26PH3), opened the image in a new tab, and copied the URL. I put the link into sora, and copied and pasted your text after it. It returned an image of a yelling Trump in a tan overcoat and red tie, standing in front of protesters with signs reading ‘STOP THE WAR’ and ‘NO OPPAN AND PEACE’. As you know, I am new to this sort of thing. How do I tell sora, ‘No, that’s completely wrong. Replace the face in the image with Trump’s face, and don’t change anything else.’? ---

You don’t link a URL to Sora, you upload the image using the plus-sign button. ---

Thanks. I didn’t know. It took some doing, but I was able to get an image. I wish the caption were better. [![Imgur](https://i.imgur.com/XMY8dBl.jpeg "imgur.com") ](https://imgur.com/XMY8dBl) ---

To be clear, the text on my version was something I added using a photo editing app, not text from Sora. Just about any image editor you have should be able to add text. (I use [this one](https://www.iudesk.com/) but I think you have an iPhone?) ---

I don’t use many apps on my iPhone, because I don’t know how to use them. I have Photoshop Elements on my Mac. I don’t know how to use _that_ either, but I can add captions with it. ---

Maybe others have had better luck, but this is the first time I’ve sort of gotten actual vampire fangs. Could be more symmetrical though. It’s adventure time! [![](https://i.imgur.com/fCyXEvE.jpeg) ](https://i.imgur.com/fCyXEvE.jpeg) ---

I was talking to ChatGPT about making a sword from the blood of one’s enemies per a meme, which led to it producing the first image for me, then I gave it a shot on my own getting increasingly abstract.

A Facebook AI group recently gave a challenge to create an image of someone licking their elbow. Obviously an anatomical impossibly for a normal human, But I tried for an elbow licker using a Rokurokubi. She would have no problem licking her elbow, but the ChatGPT renderer just doesn’t seem to understand what an elbow is. [![](https://i.imgur.com/6BRGBVH.jpeg) ](https://i.imgur.com/6BRGBVH.jpeg) ---
