MidJourney Draws More Comic Book Creators And Things Are Getting Weird

Yesterday on Bleeding Cool, we had a look at what AI drawing art program and algorithm MidJourney threw up when asked to draw comic book creators. Sometimes they are dead accurate. Sometimes they are weird. Sometimes you can see what they were going for and what went wrong. and sometimes they open iup worlds of possibilities. It's especially interesting with some creators when the programme tries to incorporate aspects of their artwork or comic book characters they are associated with.
