Crumb 1572: Leftover Slices of Pizza by AlfredoLlaquet on DeviantArt
Crumb 1572: Leftover Slices of Pizza: Wherever I have lived, there has very rarely been a pizza box with some leftover slices waiting for someone to eat or throw them away. Only in my most savage epoch, when I alone could easily eat two medium pizzas (for 2-3 people each), I sometimes left a quarter or less uneaten in a single sitting.Text by Alfredo Llaquet-Alsina.Design and image by ChatGPT.MY PRODUCTION PROCESSI write my crumbs (very short stories or reflections) when I feel like it using nex/nvi on FreeBSD 15 running KDE Plasma 6.5 on Wayland.I have 12 prompt templates that instruct ChatGPT to convert one of my crumbs into an image using a certain style.Each template basically says to ChatGPT: create an image in this particular style that reflects what the crumb says. Add the text of the crumb on the image, plus "Alfredo Llaquet-Alsina presents".It's important to note that ChatGPT decides by itself what specific image to generate every time. I just provide the crumb and the style. It provides the rest. It's its "creativity" that decides how the image will be.To speed up the process, I use a custom FreeBSD script that gets the crumb from stdio (this means I paste it on the terminal), and consecutively pairs it with each of the prompt templates and copies each result into the clipboard, one at a time, waiting for a key press in between.I paste each final prompt into ChatGPT.ChatGPT creates the image.If the image doesn't look distorted and the text is correctly rendered, it gets approved.If the image is okay and I like it, but the rendered text has a few errors, I may decide to fix the text manually by copy-pasting individual letters, which is tedious but worth it if it means saving a nice image.That's it.Note: If you notice a typo in this image or any other, please leave a comment. Usually, I can fix them.
