Asking AI for help writing this post

I had set up this topic to do a little test of AI chatbots from Open AI's (chatGPT) and Google’s (Bard), using the simple prompt “write a short blog post on why an old TV makes a great monitor for an artist's studio”. Well, it was a no contest, ChatGPT took old TV to mean a cathode ray screen and its text was overly enthusiastic and provided very dubious reasons. Bard did provide clearly correct information and a couple of items I’d overlook. Neither appealed for direct use as the "content" in this blog.

So then I tried Generative AI (Text-to-Image) comparing Stable Diffusion versus Dall.E (using nightcafe studio). I altered the prompt a little “Artist viewing a wall-mounted LCD TV to copy a reference photo and paint at easel”. Again pretty unusable perhaps except for the large one shown below. It’s superficially ok has some artistic merit and just might be partly on topic.

Worryingly he appears to be considering painting on the wall-mounted picture, which isn't a TV!
Using his right hand attached to his left arm!!

Maybe I’m getting a bit picky now. I’m a little spooked now that Google might be downgrading access to your blog if it’s using chatGPT
