Those look great. I'm super impressed with the last one! It managed to get the accordion pretty much correct with the bellows looking just a bit smooshed. I'm also a fan of the wave design it put on the grill. Maybe I'll incorporate something like that if I ever get a custom.

Thanks Justice! Yeah, that one I based on the Brazilian accordionist Mestrinho. Although, he might appreciate the additional flexibility, to my knowledge he does not have 6 fingers on his left hand.

Fact of the matter is, ai is definitely improving, as you can see in the range in this post. Someday soon I expect we will see whole 3d videos of our imagined players, not just pictures. Suspect they will play their "own" music too. Sure, this has been done in anime movies, but not yet available to us at home.

Strangely, I've noticed text creeping into one of my ai player's images. I believe she is trying to communicate. Yesterday she said if I don't get her a Gola she's going to sabotage my phone, delete all my kids' pictures. What should I do?

Anyway, here's the real Mestrinho:

AI update. In working on my "AI Accordionists of Tuscany" project, this week I noticed a marked change in hands, as if the "hands subroutine team" has been working extra hard. Can't quite say as much for the "accordion subroutine team." I should be working on my songs, but it's easier to play with AI on my phone while I drink coffee before, you know, those beams. Gotta make a video of this series some day.

Tom,
The accordions are, certainly, not very convincing!

They're holding the accordions like vested bagpipes.

What's a vested bagpipe?

True! But how about that cool bellows decoration?

The decorations are great but she's got six fingers on one hand and seven on the other: she should do well playing the scales!

Yeah, hands are slowly improving, but still a challenge. It is fascinating to me, however, as a former (reformed?) computer scientist to view the development of this technology in real time. Let’s see how long it will be until the video versions so we can “make” bands on our phones….

And, when we get them, they may look like this?:

It’s possible. But I think people will develop “musicians” with a backstory, repertoire, etc., even vocals. This is being done already in the pop space. The next Taylor Swift may well be virtual.

i WONDERED how anyone could possibly have legs that look THAT good

I really like this AI image generation. It's like armchair travel. I've always been inspired by seeing and learning new things, in life, art, music. I feel it might inspire me to get back into making artwork.

Like anyrhing else, there's tons of hyperbole. "It's going to ruin Art!!!" "It's going to save Art!!" "It's going to ruin/save civilization as we know it!!"

Yeah, yeah, yeah. For me, it's a cool new tool to generate ideas, and find fun images. I really don't care about Art (the art world/market). Been there, done that.

Here, for example, I took a self portrait I drew a hundred years ago and made myself an accordionist!

Oh, This looks something Picasso might have done! I like it.

Update. A little pattern making fun.
