Rerunning an idea, I’m curious how image generators have improved/changed.

Feel free to break up the words in your username, and let us know if you added anything like “a logo for…” Or “an avatar for…”

Let’s run it through as many different generators as you have access to, and see what happens. You might just find your new avatar picture!

    Well, I’ve found the results less impressive this time around for my username.

      Sure! I use ComfyUI locally. Replacing the underscore with a space under the assumption that this is the intended wording and using flux1-dev-fp8:

      With realmixXL_v15:

          Sure. For “Landless2029”, using a couple models I have on my machine:

          Using flux1-dev-fp8:

          Using stoiqNewrealityFLUXSD35_f1DAlphaTwo:

          Using pixelwave_flux1Dev03:

          Looks like the “land” aspect kinda dominates.

          You can also use the bot that db0 set up if you want to generate your own: just comment and include the text:

          @[email protected] draw for me Landless2090
          

          (Or whatever other text you want, like “avatar for Landless2090” or whatnot) and it’ll generate the images and respond with them.

    I’ll pass, AI doesn’t need any more training data from me than it already has, especially focused on my username.

      considers

      Fair enough; I can do one for you. I have a local ComfyUI setup, so prompt data won’t go anywhere. Heck, even if I were generating it on a service, it’d be useless for letting said service gain information about you, as I don’t know who or where you are.

      For “over_clox”, using stoiqNewrealityFLUXSD35_f1DAlphaTwo:

        Strangely, I kinda like it!

        I’ll pass though, I make my own avatars (which apparently I still haven’t applied to Lemmy…)

          That question (or similar) comes up any time someone notices my name. I hadn’t even heard of the tiles when I chose this - actually, not even sure they were a thing at that point. People also always assume my real name is Tony, which it’s not.

          This is my username because, last time I was looking for a username, the first X-Men movie had just come out. I read the then age-appropriate novelization and I liked the Toad’s secret name, Mortimer Toynbee, and claimed it for myself. Sadly, there is at least one animated series in which they’ve retconned his name.

          I’ve never intentionally used AI, but obviously it latched on to the “bee” part. I wonder what it did with the “toyn.”

          But relevant anecdote! After I had been using this name for many years, I got a job in Philadelphia. I lived a long drive away, so I would take the train to the city and walk to work. One day I took a different route between work and the train and randomly walked over a real life toynbee tile I hadn’t known was there. I had my eyes down as I crossed over it or I wouldn’t have noticed it.

          It was very jarring to see my online name in real life in a city where I knew literally no one other than my coworkers, who definitely didn’t know that name. I knew of the tiles by that point but didn’t know they’d started (or existed) in Philly and hadn’t been thinking of them at all until I read one in the street. I was so surprised that I think I stopped in the middle of a crosswalk. Seeing that tile eventually lead to me watching a documentary on the tiles, which itself was pretty interesting.

        I have actually had this exact book as a text in one of my courses. I have a copy literally within arms reach of where I’m typing this.

    Just “tal” was disappointing, something that looks kinda like a bowl of soup.

    Taking OP’s advice, and doing “an avatar for tal” on stoiqNewrealityFLUXSD35_f1DAlphaTwo yields:

    That model’s trained on people, though, so it’s going to be biased towards people.

    “tal” on flux1-dev-fp8:
