I opened my laptop camera and took the photo below, went to ChatGPT and ask it to make the photo into a sketch.. 
AI is wonderful, crazy, scary, dangerous, and a whole lot more. Each time THEY, come up with a new one, I dive in and play and play and then move on.
I have to say that Chatgpt.com is really good, maybe the best so far. I have played with all the ones that pop up. I just went to websight and did the free version, no app, and no log in. It asked for me to log in with FB, and 2 others, but I chose email and that is all. no Passwords or using Social Media.
I took a selfie of Bob and I while we were eating his first meal at the breakfast bar this week, his first walk alone, using his walker, to the breakfast bar to eat since July 11, 2025. It's only 8 steps but we no longer have to roll to the kitchen, and roll back and transfer etc. He can stand up from the bed and get himself to the bar.
We have eaten every meal at that bar for 36 years, unless our kids were here to eat.
He remembered as we ate that the reason we always ate at the bar was the TV could be seen. Racing and Football back in 1989 could not be paused, backed up, forwarded or on a DVR.. He had to watch it while it was live.
Beau was so happy, he hates the kitchen because of the slippery tile...
The sketch below is excellent, from this

They are all really beautiful! And Bob is progressing wonderfully! Everyone is using Chat GPT, but I know nothing about it. Wonder if it is any different than the AI on my browser bar.
ReplyDeleteI am totally awestruck by the sketches!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful - what a way to preserve a memory. The Beau one is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteThese are stunning! Dare I say, almost better than the photos... I admire you for embracing the incoming tide of AI. YAM xx
How cool those AI pictures are! Beautiful sketches! Great to see Bob’s progress too.
ReplyDeleteThese are all amazing. I gave up trying with chat gpt because I could not get it to give me what I was looking for
ReplyDeleteOh Sandra, these are WONDERFUL!!! I love them all, but especially love the one of you and Bob at the breakfast bar, and seeing him enjoying his food and looking like he feels so much better! What a wonderful answer to prayer!! All the sketches are really good, and are frame worthy! What fun. I have no idea how you do that and am not sure I would want to even try, but I love to see you having fun and smiling again. That's the best part of ALL!!! Happy New Year!!!
ReplyDeleteIt truly is amazing, and a little scary! And so realistic. If you have sat for 36 years in your own home forced to watch racing and sports while eating, you deserve a medal! I think that in some respects we live in a different universe, Sandra. The only compulsive TV watching we do is Jeopardy, and many days that is the only reason the TV is turned on. During the summer there are days on end when it doesn’t get turned on at all, and we never eat while watching TV. We are very old fashioned, I suppose, we sit at the table and talk to each other! And we don’t even own a large screen TV. For shame!
ReplyDeleteWow, I love them all too. Your Bob and Beau, they are all wonderful. It is just awesome news about Bob, being more mobile. Take care, have a great day!
ReplyDeleteThey are great. ChatGPT has been our go-to but we're using Nano Banana now too.
ReplyDeleteGoooood Morning. I love how much fun you're having with this. And that it's on your laptop too. Very, very cool. Happy Monday.
ReplyDeleteThe sketches are very pleasing, and, more importantly, you are enjoying yourself.
ReplyDeleteWow Sandra - those sketches are really incredible! Glad you are having fun with it too.
ReplyDeleteHooray for Bob getting to the breakfast bar, that's great news.
That sketch is amazing and so is eating at the bar!!! Big hugs from all of us.
ReplyDeleteIF AI could give me automatic artistic skills it would surely be magical. These are excellent Sandra
ReplyDeleteHugs to you and Double B's
Cecilia
Wow, wow and wow. Beautiful sketches.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and week, Sandra. Healing hugs all around and lots of scritches to handsome Beau. ♥
Hi Sandra :)
ReplyDeleteI am totally amazed to see those wonderful scetches. They are so beautiful and you look like you are having a great time using this new A I. It's such good news that Bob can now walk to the bar, may he continue to improve.Best wishes to all three of you.
