It did get maybe 90% there in a minute which is faster than a person would do it. Not a perfect tile, maybe take a few more interations. But not awful for cobbled together in a minute, and if your job is to come up with 50 or 100 different textures, still better than doing it by hand.
But as I noted, there are also already royalty free libraries for this stuff as well.
I don’t, it’s the UU folks, and each UU church is slightly different. You can see my personal opinion at the bottom. 😉
I mean, the UU church is still a church after all, but without a lot of the toxic trappings. You aren’t going to get anyone telling you the only way to get to heaven is through Jesus for example.
https://www.uua.org/beliefs/what-we-believe/beliefs/christianity/views-jesus
"UUs may view Jesus as a moral exemplar, practicing the compassion, generosity, and mercy that he preached. In his own life and in stories like the Good Shepherd and the Good Samaritan, Jesus calls us to connect: to transcend pride and selfishness and choose instead to love and serve, to do good, and to care for each other.
For some, Jesus is a prophetic leader and an instrument of the divine. They may or may not believe Jesus was the son of God or was resurrected but share with Christians a conviction that his witness has the spiritual power to redeem mistakes and save lives. Many describe a personal relationship with him that strengthens and inspires. Jesus calls us to discover new life and truth by following him.
Others view Jesus as a reformer and dissident, an underdog and ally. He was executed as a political criminal because of his teachings, but his life made an impact, then and now. He called out injustice in his own community and in the government. He stood with and spoke up for the most vulnerable, and he challenged his followers to feed the hungry and visit the imprisoned. Jesus calls us to transform, to resist the unjust systems that divide us, and reshape them for good."
Personally, I wouldn’t be comfortable with any field of thought other than “Jesus was a literary fiction, constructed by the early church as a method of control over an illiterate populace.” but then that’s why I don’t go to church. 😉
Well of course not, AI did it in 1 minute. 🤣
Check your local Unitarian Universalism (UU) branch.

Does it scale to other instruments? Violin? Piano? Ukulele? LOL.
I could see using AI for tasks that are so mind numbing and mundane it might actually be cruel to make a human do it.
“I need a perfectly tileable concrete wall texture for a video game, make it light gray with random spots of yellow and white paint.”
Took about a minute.
But then, if you’re going to do THAT, there are already royalty free libraries where it’s already done.
Remembering phone numbers.
Most famous?
Beyonce - Break My Soul:
Least famous?
Chris Smither - Place in Line / Leave the Light On (I waffle)
The files are sorted by the numeric year first, up to 1950.
The two files for 1950 are together, as they should be.
But the letters are sorted alphabetically, so XI comes before XV. It doesn’t see that they are numbers, it’s reading them as letters.
If they want it sorted correctly, they should rename the files:
“1950 - 018
1950 - 019”
That would work. Interestingly enough, so would:
“1950 - Eighteen
1950 - Nineteen”
If Woodsy Owl and Smokey Bear teamed up, they would be unstoppable.
There was a quickplay where someone figured out how to beat the game in something crazy like 10 or 12 minutes.
What the column has you do is disable Gemini access in Mail, but it is still on for search.
I did all that ages ago and re-confirmed, it’s still all disabled…
But Gemini persists:
Throwing sod in a back yard. I’ll never do that again.
I had to call THREE hospitals to get a CT scan in a reasonable amount of time. First one said “April” and I was like “No.”
2nd one said 2/18 which is better, but still 29 days out and I don’t want to sit and ruminate on the diagnosis that long.
3rd one? 1 week. 1/27! I think that’s about as good as I can get.
“Left on read” - She gets his messages but does not read them. His icon on Discord probably has a [328] next to it.
Listen to this song with the transcript open:
Not at all wrong, just showing what can be done with virtually zero effort and time.
I could most likely perfect it in a few minutes more, still a fraction of the time of doing it by hand. I’m not extending a proof of concept to win arguments on the Internet. 😉
But as I noted at the bottom of the comment, which apparently nobody bothered to read, there are ALREADY royalty free libraries for this kind of thing. So it also has to be faster than searching libraries that are already there.
Of course that action is it’s own time sink as anyone who has gone looking for “the perfect font” can tell you.
