A.I. Family Photos

Earlier this year, my daughter painted little watercolor avatars of everyone in our family:

Messing around today, I moved them into a group arrangement, then used Google Gemini to add this watercolor background:

That worked out well, so I wondered what would happen if I used A.I. to make the image more detailed. Here’s what we would look like in a low-budget YouTube animation (made by robots! No smiling!):

This is the higher budget version, I guess. Although, to me, this image screams “A.I. generated!” more than the others:

And finally, doesn’t this look like a TV drama about a family… with a terrible secret?

If that’s who they’re casting to play us on TV, not bad! However, call me sentimental, but I still prefer the watercolor version…
