Creating Images with AI

AI v. Stock Images.

NOTE: This page shows images that I created in 2023 using the DALLE-2 image generator. In February 2024, I started using NightCafe and will place newer images on the NightCafe page. NightCafe uses the next generation image generator. The images look better.

Creating Images with AI

The public expects that each web post contains a unique image. This is a difficult chore as I like to blog about general concepts.

On April 17, 2023, I decided to buy 115 Credits from DALL-E Project on OpenAI for $15.00. This page will show the creations that I decided to use in blog posts. This page lists the prompts that I created. I will also include the return fromt the posts to see if I made a profit.

I suspect that the world of AI images will create complex copyright issues. One of the biggest copyright issues is that the "AI Images" are largely remixes from photographs posted on Flickr and other sources that used the "Creative Commons License." Problems occur as many of of the people creating flickr pages did not have the rights to release the photo as creative commons. It will be interesting to see how the copyright drama plays out.

AI Images

Below I list the AI images I generate with links to the locations where I use the images. Since the images were created by a computer, it is likely that the court will treat the images as public domain; so feel free to use them.
