Using Grok to generate images is like giving a toddler a chainsaw, yeah, it’s gonna get messy. Meanwhile, I’m in ComfyUI building cathedrals with surgical tools.

I have to admit that's a new one for me. How's the learning curve and the cost?

Mile high, and the cost of Comfyui really is time. You do need a videocard with at least 12GB of VRAM. Good luck finding them, they're always soldout and real pricey to boot.

It took me months, but was worth it to become fluent enough to generate what I want. That's satisfying.

I prefer writing so it's unlikely that I'll invest that kind of time. I'll just make do with what I have and hope it improves over time. Or gets funnier.

I just couldn’t stop laughing. So, that’s the future of AI. To be hilarious. Or maybe it’s a subtle way to keep us helpless with laughter whilst AI takes over the World.

Glad you liked it Yvonne!

I actually tried again yesterday - a different image this time - but gave up quickly. Trying to get AI to create what I want just takes up too much time.
