Have I Lost My Mind?

 I asked the AI image generator app that I have been using to generate some images of families.  Well, in those images of families, there were three children that look very oddly similar to children that I have worked with or taken care of.  This is a bit freaky. 🫨 The images didn’t look exactly like the actual children.  Two of them had different shades and types of hair and different skin tones, but I could still really see the resemblances even though the images also looked different.  Maybe other people wouldn’t agree or see it, but I did.  Sometimes I think that the images may have two or more faces morphed together, so it is possible to see more than one familiar person in a single image.  Am I the only person on the planet who has had weird experiences like this using AI apps?  I did a little google search to see if I could find any discussion on this topic but I did not find anything,  Maybe I have just lost my mind. 😳

I could choose to not use these apps, but why would I want to be in the dark if weird stuff is happening with AI.  Everyone who uses the internet and smartphones and social media is now involved with things that make use of or are influenced by AI.  We don’t yet really know what has happened or even what the AI that now exists is. We only know that it does exist.  I think I would rather be aware of these things than have no clue even if it’s all confounding to say the least.  

There was also an image that looked like my niece as a young child.

This was another “wow, I don’t know what to think about this” moment.

North Pole Smoking Controversy

I found myself recalling that the Santa Claus of years gone by smoked a pipe.  It was even described in the book,  Twas The Night Before Christmas.   “The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth.  And the smoke it encircled his head like wreath.”   It’s amazing how times can change.  Nowadays, a smoking Santa would never be part of a children’s book.  I don’t know if any other human beings in history have ever had the experience of seeing the world change so much, and in so many ways, over a few decades of their lives.  I doubt it.  What a pivotal time in human history have those of us living now found ourselves born into. So what is a poor Santa Claus to do without a pipe?  I don’t know.  Maybe replace it with a candy cane. #candyisdandy Okay, I was wrong.  I guess for the sake of tradition and a traditional story, Santa is still sometimes shown with a pipe, at least in this Dollar Tree version of  “Twas The Night Before Christmas”.  It’s a really stupid looking pipe though.  Maybe

Science Fiction

 Oh dear, I think I need a unique space for my sci-fi thoughts and ideas even though I have never in my life been a fan of movies or programs or literature of the sci-fi genre.  (Ok, I did like “Lost In Space” and “Land Of The Lost” as a kid, and I did, as an adult, become interested in watching some episodes of “Star Trek: The Next Generation”.)  Anyway, the space will not be a place for any actual stories, but rather just a place for my random thoughts and ideas.

Nutrition & Diet

 If my diet and eating choices are to blame for my heart issue, I am still in denial.  I haven’t changed anything.  Thinking about this, I realize that my cardiologist never said one word to me about food or my diet or making any changes.  I am wondering if she places more weight on the genetic component of these things as opposed to environmental factors.  I don’t know.  Thinking back on it, though, I find it a little odd that food and diet were never mentioned even when I returned for my follow up appointment. Image generator please replace the fish in your healthy diet image with chicken!
