Vladimir Chopine has a YouTube video that may be helpful: The best free AI Art Generators.

Some require a Google account, but others do not.  Also, there are AIs you can install locally, though he did not give the link.  One is https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/installation/.  I am trying that one out now.

Added:  And ... installation failed.  It requires an older version of Python than I have installed.

Norway Prologue:

Spoiler: Aksel Eide • show



At least I got my grandmother to safety before the horror hit. And she knows so much!


Spoiler: Sigrun Larsen • show



I didn't really want to meet Aksel's grandma at first; I came out here to get away from boring old people. But she turned out to be amazing!


Spoiler: Goran Andersen • show



It probably sounds silly, but one thing I miss about the old world, even more than coffee, is crossword puzzles. Sometimes I think my brain is melting for lack of intellectual stimulation.


Spoiler: Ingrid Pedersen • show



Mother Earth is angry at us. Isn't that obvious? What we need to do is worship her properly. Well, and fight off the monsters too, but in between fighting, we need to worship our Mother.


Spoiler: Gunnar Sigmundsen • show



I didn't really mean to end up here when the world ended. I'd sort of planned to find my sister and make up with her, you know, before we all died. But … these kids need me if they're going to survive at all.

Note: Gunnar doesn't actually have a surname, but everyone else does, so I gave him one.


Spoiler: Berit Eide • show



Well, I've experienced many changes in my long life. I'll grant you that surviving the end of the world is the biggest such change, but still … these kids haven't experienced so much; they need someone like me (and maybe Gunnar) to help them.

These are quite wonderful!
I came to Berit Eide's portrait, and my brain went "Wait - this art AI knows our Róisín?"

Bravo, lwise, on these beautiful prologue people! The AI art generators really prefer symmetry - it makes their jobs easier!  :haw:

You’re right, Buteo, she does look a bit like me, in attitude and carriage, though my hair is wavy rather than curly and my glasses are more rectangular. There are a few photos of me on the Reenactment thread, early on, doing my mediæval fair thing and handling a barn owl, so you can compare. But the general air of ‘cheerful competent old country lady’ is certainly similar.

I was trying to match this image of Berit:

Considering what we've seen of AI art, it's probably quite good that you left Bipolar Cat out of the picture. ;D

JoB, you mean this guy?



Or her?



Or perhaps them?



The latter I tried to evolve, and again it was turned into a woman. Sort of.

Apparenty there are more pictures of cat beasts in the source material than there are reindeer beasts (imagine that!) I tried to get an eight-leggd reindeer for my Chistmas picture, but the closest it got was two reindeer!

It looks to me like a platypus dived in between a bunch of cats, looking for warmth!  :haw:

Spoiler: Michael Madsen • show




So I'm stuck on this farm. It's not that I don't know how to do anything these days; it's just that I'm not very good at anything. Still, I feel, just a little, like I'm accomplishing things. I never felt that working in an office all day. Although … man, I miss my morning coffee.


Spoiler: Signe Sørensen • show



It's strange to have a job that I can't be fired from. The Madsens provide room and board, and I work from dawn to dusk. I'm sure that would be illegal if the government still existed, or if they didn't all work right alongside me. Mostly Michael works alongside me, now that I think about it. You don't suppose …


Spoiler: Stine • show




I really shouldn't have hit him. But then, he hit me first. I did what I could, but it didn't work. Nothing will work.

It's the end of the world.

Oh, right, that’s what it is! I thought it looked like something but couldn’t quite put my finger on it. But it’s definitely the rear end of a platypus, now that you mention it :)

The prompt for all of these included ”bipolar cat”, never catS.
