Craiyon

While browsing The New York Post website yesterday (whatever its right wing politics the paper is still an excellent source of local news) I came across an interesting article describing an AI powered app, one of several actually, that can create visual images from verbal descriptions.  I've found the possibilities of such a use of AI intriguing and have longed to begin creating my own such visual works.  The free web based app described in The Post article is Craiyon, formerly known as DALL-E mini, and I was able to create the above image, one of several choices, in only a moment using the description "bright red roses blooming on a cracked desert floor."  It's not terribly sophisticated, of course, but it does give a hint of what can be accomplished with only a minimal amount of effort.
