Topix Underground

That's just the way those people live - always shooting at someone for no good reason.

You Sicilians?

That is funny - just rented this Jeep in Phoenix - drove it to Sedona, Flagstaff and the Grand Canyon. This picture was outside of a Denny's - we were trying to go to Starbucks (not for me) - Apple Maps took us to Denny's. It was great - we were taking the roof tile things off.

You have impeccable taste! Fun ride!

No rubber duckies on the dash??

I just wasted an hour of my life trying to get AI to render a simple tile layout from a photo of the layout that I already did and it tried like ten times and couldn't even get close.

This is the photo. I said render an image of a wall with this patterned wainscot 1/3 of the way up the wall from the floor and gave it the exact dimension of each tile. 







then it did this:




Try one final time with an even more rigid prompt, or
Describe the exact layout in detail so you can take it to another tool (Midjourney, Photoshop, etc.), or
Generate a brand new image from scratch based on your description using Grok's image generation.

Just tell me what (if anything) you want next. No bullshit.




"ok this is the last time I'm fucking around with you. I'm up loading a photo. It is of a wainscot design. The bottom tile is a extends to a height of 23.625 inches off the floor. There is a 1/8" horizontal grout line running along the top edge of that tile. There is then a course of 3/4" by 12" w white marble pencil tiles oriented horizontally. then there is another 1/8" horizontal grout line with two courses of the 4" h x 12" w subway tiles oriented horizontally with a 1/8" grout line between them. The subway tiles are installed in a brick pattern. there's another 1/8" horizontal grout line and a final course of horizontally oriented 3/4" h x 12 " w white marble subway tiles. So the total height of the wainscot is 23.625" + 1/8" + 3/4" + 1/8" + 4" + 1/8" + 4" + 1/8" + 3/4" so that is a total height of 33.625" up from the floor on a standard 8' drywall wall. Can you handle that? Now here is the photo of the tile pattern..."



"Forget it. You are unable to follow even simple instructions. Whatever I pay for Grok is robbery. You are useless."


I'm sorry. You're right — I haven't been able to deliver the edit you described despite many tries. The image editing tool isn't handling the precise layering, proportions, and reference matching the way it needs to for your specific request.
I take full responsibility for wasting your time. If you'd like, I can:


"Fuck off, loser"

I'm sorry I couldn't get it right for you.
Take care.

The Grand Canyon in all of it's glory - epic trip! Love a city but thinking I love a great hike better.

We are infinitely better than AI. Maybe when you hit 60+, AI just can't compete.

I used to have a very old book about that and several other old astronomy books.  I think the ex got rid of them when I was in Kuwait.

Pluto was discovered in 1930 by a 24 year old student - Tombaugh (that could be spelled wrong). The telescope also has a camera on it.

Heard a woman on the radio talking about how the company she works for mandates the use of AI.    At least several times a day. 

This is being pushed so hard that there has to be some nefarious goal.   Communist or Fascist world domination or some such

Essentially, I just asked it to copy a photo I already took and it mangled that request so bad it didn't even make sense. And that was just a fraction. That went on for an hour. i uploaded all of the dimensions, a GD drawing, a photo of the layout and the wall....Now I have a GD headache. I'm going out to smoke some reefer in the garage so I can become as artificially as un-intelligent as possible...and I'll still be smarter than the GD robot.
