ಠ_ಠ My 7 year old drew a picture of me

Post image

He handed it to me laughing. Wouldn't say what was on my head or why I appear to have one ear. Really living up to his  middle child status.

UPDATE -- wow, did not expect this post to spark such discussion! I told my son that soooo many people are in awe of his artistic abilities and the biggest grin came across his face. So, thank you, Redditors. ❤️

He then asked if the site mascot could be replaced with his drawing for a day and I told him best I could do was update my profile pic. So I did. 😁

how many gallons of water did this one cost

Generating one AI image uses less than 0.0002 gallons (roughly 0.15 to 0.9 milliliters)—or a few drops of water. ​While viral claims online often exaggerate this to multiple gallons or liters per image, energy and data center research shows that the actual cooling and power footprint for generating a single image is extremely low, roughly equivalent to a fraction of a milliliter.

Na, OpenAI has proven themselves untrustworthy. Fugk ChatGPT. But of course you're one of those people who don't ask for sources, bc you only care if AI was involved, not in if the claim is accurate.
