Sora/ChatGPT/Copilot is completely peerless in its ability to create random animal species.
Summary
Nyctibius grandis, mouth open, is sitting on a blobfish. The blobfish is sitting on a Pelochelys cantorii. The Pelochelys cantorii (wearing a tiny Hejaz fezz) is sitting on a large, predominantly red, rippling flying carpet with the patterns of an afghan rug and tattered yellow fringe. The carpet is flying over Tokyo Tower. In the far distance Godzilla us grappling with an Adamski type flying saucer. Realistic Iphone 15 photo with shallow dof and forced perspective.

Prompt: Draw Space ace and Kimberly (from the 80’s Don Bluth video game) holding the baby Borf
ETA: fixing the capitalization of “Ace” helped a lot, but not quite enough…
If I’m interpreting that, and the results of a quick Google, correctly… Space Ace was a game in the same format as Dragon’s Lair, that is to say, where there was one single scripted and fully-animated path to victory, and at every decision point, either you stayed on that path to victory, or you did something wrong and cut to a game over scene (also scripted and animated). The AI knew that Space Ace was a science fiction variation on Dragon’s Lair, and so drew a rendition of the Dragon’s Lair hero, but re-interpreted into a science-fiction style, even though that’s not what the actual Space Ace character looked like. Have I got that right?
I think the Space Ace embeddings and Dragon’s Age embeddings are close in the whatever dimensional space they live in, yes.
In the first image, I’d say that was closer to the medi-fantasy style for both characters with a totally generic backgound. That was a pretty good Dirk the Daring from the first Don Bluth game instead of Space Ace from the second. In the second image, that’s clearly Space Ace, some minor details wrong I won’t quibble about.
It got somewhat close to Baby Borf in the first one, although it made him look like a demon child rather than an innocent alien child. Medi-fantasy style influence, probably. At least it got the color right. The second Baby Borf was closer in spirit to the character, but looked less like him, IMHO.
It was way off on Kimberly in both images. Generic Disney animated women.
Here’s an animated version for your enjoyment.
Oh, that’s one of the best pic-to-animation generations I’ve seen so far, and with decent sound too. Surprisingly good! What made it?
It’s there in the title: Envato. (I haven’t tried it myself)
I love the lady on the train track.
This one is for LSLGuy
Yes, Envato. I’ve been a subscriber for years. They offer a massive library of graphics, sound effects, music, video templates, and more—and lately, they’ve leaned heavily into cutting-edge AI tools. It also integrates directly with Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and After Effects, which makes for a streamlined workflow.
Tonight I ran across the word “eierschalensollbruchstellenverursacher” and had to put it through the test.

Thanks! One of my favs as well.
That’s an issue I ran into as well. I asked it if it was doing that, and it said yes, but that I could ask it to forget everything else. And when I did, it showed this popup saying that it had cleared the memory for that chat.
I told Copilot to review our entire chat history across all sessions and create an image it thinks I would like.
Booking with the psychiatrist now…
Now THAT is art.
Speaking of remembering things, yesterday I was trying to make an image and Copilot started making suggestions for additional details (as it tends to do) and it suggests a scenario involving Sparklefart.
More like a generic Hannah-Barbara animated woman, I think.
I wonder if there’s some other animated character named Kimberly that it’s getting mixed up with, given how similar its two "Kimberly"s are?
