I don't know how I did it, but my ClipChamp instance connected me to an orphaned YouTube channel that I should have lost when they terminated Scherk unexpectedly during an earlier purge. The funny thing is that ClipChamp affords me the only access to the channel. I can't delete or update or add cards or anything once it is done. A fine start, as it has four subscribers.
I'll experiment with uploading full "Description" note including timecodes ... we only get one shot!

Testing raw link from the DALL-E labs at OPENAI.com. [Added: There is something widly inventive and yet creepy about DALL-E's "brains." She or he or They are always learning, always spinning, but they have no freaking idea why the hair is standing up on the back of your neck ... ]
William × DALL·E | 2000 Mules the movie, with Dinesh DeSouza, poster Art Nouveau
LABS.OPENAI.COMCreated with DALL·E, an AI system by OpenAII have quickly become quasi-addicted to the one-armed-bandit 'payoff' moments that come from spending imaging tokens.
DALL-E is not expensive, and they don't have to pay "Brainiac" anything but food and shelter expenses, electricity being paramound food. On the other hand, no doubt there are leagues of software engineers in a bristling competition to Be Best. Who all gots to be paid.
DALL-E's registered site at OpenAI's online ecosystem also gives access to new Beta scrambles for dominance, which are astounding for their ability to churn out non-uncanny items. These are ready to go for web+design purposes -- from logos to draft menus, comic book layouts, cartoons, and on and on.
Compete incessantly and evolve without mercy; another rolling-beta open-ish source engine is in free-first-bag-of-crack mode on Discord (MidJourney).
It does such spendid things as taking a 'seed' picture and then applying text-based instructions. Uncanny Valley of excellence in design. Yet, yes, scary at all points beyond a fifth 'regeneration' ...
MidJourney has an associated web instance for directly image-sharing links. I'll drop a version or two from Twitter in the blank-out below, given time.
A no-co-pay addiction engine comparable to MidJourney is BlueWillow, also on Discord. It has the limitations of censorship for violence, sex and so on, but much tighter than DALL-E. It seems like some of these engine's brains haven't learned any current affairs since 2021, so they are unable to envision who and what are now common meme-fodder.
Bizarre and freaking instance ...
Honourable mention is the brilliant, Caffeine-THC-Dilaudid-Oxytocin lure Deep Dream Generator. I won't link, because you will Spend All Your Tokens and rob grandma's purse to get more.
The newest thing to me that induces mild freakout is a Dramatic Script Maker, in development and just available for tinkering via GitHub depository. Dramatron.

William × DALL·E | A luscious look-alike Amy Winehouse barmaid raises a very large bottle of Romanian Plum Brandy in one hand. Her eyeliner is very thick. In a lively, Capri style.
