  1. Those AI pictures trip me out. Like this one for instance:

    1). What is the tray with pewter cup on the window seal?
    2). Why is down from the interior window, a lane with exterior windows on a building?
    Are we inside or out???
    3). The shading is always spooky weird the senses. Like a bad faux, Rembrandt lighting shade.
    4). Why are two coins falling into the jar but the man is holding a pen???
    Hahaha
    Are we inside or out?
    Schröedinger’s pussy cat
    Ask AI that!
