First Attempt at Artificial Intelligence (AI)

As someone who has had a life-long interest in drawing and photography, I was excited to be invited to try Adobe’s Artificial Intelligence image generating software Firefly. The program is in Beta format so nothing is “owned” by the users at this point and everything generated under the Beta is restricted from commercial use. I have been using Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop for years and they are top-notch products.

One thing I have come to appreciate about Adobe and their evangelists such as Terry White, is their constant work towards creating a better product and end-user experience. That is why I patiently waited for Adobe’s entrance into the Artificial Intelligence (AI) realm. It is not currently the leader in this field, but I have a strong feeling that they will eventually be one of the best.

I am also excited to be able to learn as I go and provide valid feedback to enable the Adobe team to continue to make improvements and enhancements. To quote Jim VandeHei from Axios, “We’re on the doorstep of a new age — don’t be a bystander.”

With that being said, this is my first attempt at producing a Text to Image picture. I encourage anyone who is interested to give it a try. You will have to have an Adobe ID. Click HERE for complete details regarding how to access the Beta version of Adobe Firefly.

SignEdge: A New Dog In Town

Most people who have spent a good many hours on the Internet, Twitter, Instagram or Pinterest probably have come across the very funny signs at the Indian Hills Community Center in Colorado.

You can see some of their work HERE

They are very well known among the “Internet literati.”

Apparently there is a new dog in town with a specific, animal view of many things in the world and they too have some very funny signs.

 


 

 

 

And last, but by far the least….

You can view more of the funny signs from the Carroll County Veterinary Clinic via the Bored Panda website.

Dogs that Are Scaredy Cats

Almost everyone knows the phrase – “The bigger they come, the harder they fall.” Watching this video you can witness this platitude in action.

Cats and dogs are filmed in confrontations where size doesn’t always dictate which way the encounter goes. I think you will get a few laughs from watching these animal antics and if you watch to the end, you may see a few surprises!

Video-Ohs – A Lone Dog Plays A Game on a Trampoline

This dog named Bear must really like to play catch. He doesn’t even need another animal or person, he just plays by himself as long as he has the trampoline.

This is the narrative from the YouTube page:

Bear the dog from California used his owner’s trampoline to play fetch with himself. After placing the ball on the mat, he ran underneath and nudged the ball into the air with his nose before catching it. The clever pooch never seemed to tire of the game which he invented when his human family stopped playing with him and left him to his own devices.

Picture: Like Cats and Dogs


I will comfort you (ooo)
I’ll take your part, oh, when darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Bridge over Troubled Water, Simon & Garfunkel

Video – A Dog Loves Her Pups

“Heaven goes by favor. If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in.” ― Mark Twain

Every animal is driven by basic needs. It is difficult to overcome these requirements. Thirst is perhaps the greatest, but I am sure hunger is right up there with it. The video below demonstrates how a mother dog’s love for her brood can overcome her biological urge to eat in favor of feeding her young. I think you will find this an interesting look into animal psychology.

From the YouTube Video Page:

“This mother dog was begging for the grilled chicken for the second time. The first time she held it in her mouth and ran away. I decided to follow her to where she was going and discovered that she was taking it to her litter of puppies..”

Humor Video – Dogs Called to Dinner

These dogs are very well-behaved. Each waits until their name is called before proceeding to the chow line. They appear to be called in a random order, but could be conditioned to the same daily roll call. All goes well UNTIL…the very last dog who seems to have the patience of Job or resents being called last. I think you will enjoy this very short video.

Video – Bruno – A Home Town Dog

Every once in a while a tale appears about a kindred spirit of one sort or another. This is a true story about a dog who had a rough start in life, but had a need for friendship. He was full of wanderlust and was hard to keep home. Although he apparently loved his adopted family, his heart was much bigger than that and he had more to share with everyone.

Every day for more than a decade, Bruno walked four miles to a nearby town where he made regularly scheduled stops and visited with as many people as he could.

Watch the heartwarming video below for more of the details about how Bruno became a home town hero!
