A bit scary. . .


 Went to a little pizza party last night in my building. Fun. Mike makes a great pizza on the bbq grill oven. Let’s have another party soon, we decided, only let’s invite all the neighbors and just see who comes.

“I’ll make up an ad,” volunteered Marty, our software nerd. He then asked artificial intelligence to create one from a group selfie we had just made. Within seconds, Presto. You see the result above.


Bet you don’t recognize me. AI gave me hair and eyebrows and nice big eyes. But it’s a nice result promoting future good times.


My firm had a graphics department of nine designers, photo technicians etc. So glad I am now retired. I would have had to let most go and they have families. Retrain them? Not likely.


Now I wonder about my grandchild’s future at the Minnesota College of Art and Design. Her future? Hope she adapts to the new world.


But then again, look at that head of hair!
