AI has it handled!

On Monday night there was a deluge of rain around dinnertime. We have a clear bird feeder on the outside of the kitchen window, and while the rain poured I noticed a very young and tired bird was taking refuge in the feeder. I snapped a photo.

The photo is adorable, but you can see the blue light from the toaster oven reflected in the glass. No problem, I have Photoshop and Photoshop has AI now!

I opened the photo, selected the area with the blue streaks, turned on generative fill, and typed “can you remove the blue light streaks?”

And it did.

But it added a handle to the bird and birdfeeder.

I’m not worried about AI right now.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

Well, that happened.
