Waning moon, new moon, however I have phrased the prompt thus far, the crane birds are always in front of a full moon.

Yet a prompt for something else got a good result.

Once upon a time, on a breezy day by the seaside, a lady in a soft, gentle yellow dress was taking a leisurely stroll. Her dress, as delicate as morning sunlight, fluttered in the wind that blew from her right side. She wore a wide-brimmed red hat that added a contrast to her attire. Her long, light brown hair flowed down like a cascading waterfall, dancing freely with the rhythm of the wind.

As she walked along the sandy beach, her eyes reflecting the vast expanse of the sea, an impressionist artist noticed her. He was captivated by her serene beauty and the picturesque scene of which she was a part. Gathering his courage, he approached her and asked, “May I please paint your picture?”

The lady, surprised yet flattered, agreed with a gentle smile. She posed for the artist, looking directly at him. Her smile, as soft as the yellow of her dress, was beautifully infectious. The artist, inspired by her grace and the enchanting surroundings, began to paint.

With each stroke of his brush, he captured not just the lady’s physical likeness, but also the essence of the moment. The sky, sea, and sand formed a harmonious backdrop, enhancing the lady’s elegance. The wind seemed to whisper tales into the artist’s ears, guiding his hand as he painted.

As the artist progressed, the painting started to come alive. It was as if he was not just creating a piece of art, but also weaving a story - a story of a beautiful day, a charming lady, and a moment that stood still in time. The painting, much like the day, was a testament to the beauty of simplicity and the charm of the mundane.

And so, the day etched itself onto the canvas, immortalizing the lady in the yellow dress, the artist, and their brief, yet unforgettable encounter by the seaside. The painting was a silent melody, a visual poetry, a beautiful story painted in colors and emotions. And every time someone looked at it, they could hear the sea, feel the wind, and see the lady with the gentle smile, forever frozen in time, yet as alive as the day itself.

As the painter set up his easel, the lady in the blue dress continued to read aloud from her book of haiku. The small elephant, entranced by the rhythm of her voice, swayed gently in time with the verses. The scent of lavender filled the air, adding a sense of tranquility to the scene.

The painter, a young man with a keen eye for detail, began to capture the scene on his canvas. He painted the lady in her blue dress, the color vivid against the purple lavender field. He painted the small elephant, its eyes full of peace and curiosity. He painted the Roman aqueduct in the distance, a testament to the passage of time and the endurance of history.

As the afternoon wore on, the lady read, the elephant listened, and the painter painted. It was a moment suspended in time, a snapshot of peace and harmony. The sun began to set, casting long shadows and bathing the field in a warm, golden light. The painter added these final touches to his canvas, capturing the magical transition from day to night.

Finally, as the last light of day faded, the painter packed up his easel and approached the lady and the elephant. He showed them the painting, a beautiful rendition of their afternoon together. The lady was delighted with the painting, and even the elephant seemed to appreciate the likeness.

And so, under the starlit sky, amidst the field of lavender, the lady, the elephant, and the painter shared a moment of quiet satisfaction. They had each contributed to creating something beautiful that day - a memory, a painting, and a bond formed in the heart of nature. The lady closed her book of haiku, the elephant gave a contented sigh, and the painter packed away his masterpiece, their shared experience forever immortalized on canvas. And as they parted ways under the twinkling stars, they carried with them the memory of a perfect day, a memory as vivid and enduring as the painting itself.

It seems to me that better results can be achieved with getting paintings if one regards the AI as a competent and helpful artist whose native language is not English and who has only studied English as a foreign language at a basic level. So build up what one wants in a sequence of sentences that each have a simple structure.

I am not very good at faces but is Bing Chat AI using the same faces in various pictures, as if the AI has been trained on a limited number of artist's models and if it needs a face it uses one from its licensed collection or something like that?

The story.

Please write a story about a man who visits an art exhibition of impressionist paintings and viewing one picture falls in love with the lady in the picture. A lady wearing a yellow dress, looking directly forward and smiling. Yet he feels disappointment as he believes the picture to be over a hundred years old. Yet he is mistaken as the exhibition turns out to be of recent paintings that have been artificially aged so as to demonstrate the technique involved. Please continue the story.

In the heart of London, a man named Charles, an art enthusiast, visited an art exhibition showcasing impressionist paintings. His eyes were drawn to one particular painting. It was of a lady in a yellow dress, her gaze fixed forward, her lips curved into a gentle smile. The painting was so lifelike, so vivid, that Charles felt an immediate connection with the lady in the picture. He was captivated by her charm and grace, and he found himself falling in love with her.

However, a wave of disappointment washed over him. He believed the painting to be over a hundred years old, and the lady in the picture long gone. He sighed, feeling a sense of loss for a love that could never be.

Days turned into weeks, and Charles found himself visiting the exhibition repeatedly, drawn to the lady in the yellow dress. On one such visit, he overheard a conversation between two curators. They were discussing the unique technique used in these paintings - they were recent works, artificially aged to demonstrate the impressionist technique.

Charles' heart skipped a beat. The lady in the yellow dress wasn't from a bygone era, but from his own time! A glimmer of hope sparked in his heart. He approached the curators, inquiring about the artist. They introduced him to a young woman named Amelia, who was the artist behind the captivating paintings.

Amelia was delighted to meet someone who appreciated her work so deeply. She revealed that the lady in the yellow dress was not a figment of her imagination, but a real person, a friend who often modeled for her.

With Amelia's help, Charles was able to meet the lady in the yellow dress. Her name was Eleanor, and she was just as charming and graceful in person as she was in the painting. Charles and Eleanor quickly formed a deep connection, their love story unfolding like a beautiful painting, stroke by stroke, color by color.

And so, what began as a visit to an art exhibition turned into a journey of love and discovery for Charles, proving that art, indeed, imitates life.

It appears that if a human end user runs the same prompt from a new topic start a number of times then there might perhaps be sometimes a picture that matches the prompt within the pictures that are produced.

I am not trying to demonstrate anything. I am trying to learn about AI and what it will do and what it will not do, all mixed in with being interested in art and just generally "pottering" in the topic. I am retired, at home, not AT an organization, so my research in this topic is not AT a university or AT an organization, so I can "potter" where I choose, yet I do not have any advanced facilities. I am not designing an AI system, I am not training an AI system, I am just an end user of an AI system that is available to use free as Bing Chat AI.

In physics, if one is researching, one tries to change one variable at a time. I have used that style of approach in investigating AI as an end user.

I started with asking for a picture of a lady in a long green dress feeding an okapi as it seemed plausible that the AI system might be able to produce that yet an unusual topic so that it would be unlikely that such a picture would already exist.

So having got such a picture I added a change to that, rather than a totally new picture, though later I have asked for entirely different pictures. Yet those pictures are often linked to other art.

I did, as a test, try changing "an okapi" to "a stegosaurus" to observe what would happen, and it worked.

The lady looking at the robot modelled on her I think is good - imagine her thoughts - but three other pictures were sort of a lady in a long dress stood next to what one might describe as a silver C3P0 robot, so not that same sort of ambience.

The other groups of pictures are often linked to other art.

For examples, the lady reading haiku to an elephant,

There is a picture of Cranes before a gibbous moon near the end of the following long post.

https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index. … ent=891269

Asking for a painting in the style of Monet is because Alfred made a comment in another forum.

https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index. … nt=1160886

I have found that it is best to put the artist style immediately after requesting a painting and thus before the stating of the subject of the painting.

What am I trying to achieve? Well, nothing in particular, I am retired, finding something to do, keeping my mind active, yet I am a researcher so I am I suppose simultaneously pottering and researching in AI.

I can also get enjoyment by applying the output from the  AI system. So, for example, the original files of the pictures reproduced in this thread, I can, if I choose to do so, go to the

https://www.papier.com/

webspace and set up what is advertised as a photo greetings card using the picture that has been output from the AI system on the front of the card, use the space inside the card that is normally used for the greeting - there are text fonts available as well as scripts and one can have lots of lines of text - to add details of the AI prompt that was used, other descriptive text and the date and send it to myself and upon receipt of the card, frame the card.

So, maybe just an end user having a go at using AI, yet always the possibility that I might discover something original.

A list of things that Bing Chat AI sometimes gets in a muddle about at present

Within various threads things that Bing Chat AI will sometimes get in a muddle about are being found. Please post any such finds in this thread, preferably with a link to any post in another thread where that find is discussed.

Already known are that when asked for a picture of an okapi, sometimes, yet not always, a picture is produced where the okapi wrongly has horns somewhere between those of a gazelle and an ibex.
