For a class demo, I took a script written by ChatGPT, had WellSaid narrate it, and used that audio to puppeteer a Midjourney character using one-shot-talking-face. My entire family intervened and told me in no uncertain terms that it was the worst thing I've ever made.😳

You can't convince me this isn't a teaching expense

To anyone interested: I've asked my first-year art students to create #AIart chapbooks using #ChatGPT + #Midjourney, and to publish them for-real using Amazon Kindle Digital Publishing. I'll be able to share results shortly after Feb 2nd, in a thread commencing here.
