Image Based Generative AI

How I use AI for communication and influence our traffic safety world.
Scared - FREE Car Seat.png

Images, Icons, Photos, & More

I use AI to also generate images, icons, phots and more to help you tell a story.

​

Here's an image I generated and then Photoshopped onto a photo I took of some "Free" Car seats on the curb.   I then had AI help me write an impactful blog post to help inform families and our community about the dangers of "Free" car seats from the curb.

​

Read the Blog Post here:  The Hidden Dangers of Used Car Seats: A Matter of Child Safety

​

Oh, and if you haven't guessed it...all of the images you've seen here have been AI generated.  I'll post more examples below.

​

Some (there are likely hundreds joining the mix daily) of the leaders in the AI Image Generation world are

  • MidJorney

  • Microsoft's CoPilot (Part of OpenAI's ChatGPT & DallE)

  • Stable Diffusion

  • Sora (Open AI's Text to Video - Not yet available to the public)

 

About the AI Photos and Images below: 

  1. I didn't need to get a photo release.

  2. There's no copyright issues.

  3. I didn't have to hire a photographer or a model.   

  4. I simply entered in a "Text Prompt" asking AI to generate the image.

  5. Boom! Review (Human Oversite), Copy, Paste, Post!  (Also with some photoshopping as noted below)   Enjoy.

The Prompt:  Native American Teen Driving a Pickup, wearing seatbelt, portrait photography, beautiful, sunlight, smooth light, real photography fujifilm superia, full HD, taken on a Canon EOS R5 F1.2 ISO100 35MM

​

Note:  The original image did not produce a seatbelt.  I had to photoshop the seatbelt into the image.

The Prompt:  a happy infant in a car seat with a properly placed chest clip

​

Note:  Despite the prompt, of a "Properly Placed Chest Clip" I have yet to have AI produce a properly fitted and installed car seat.   I think AI was absent during the CPST training.  So, I've used images like this in a "Spot The Error" type of thing.

Megladon Photo - Final.png

The Prompt:  Multiple Prompts were used. 

  1. Pixar Cartoon, happy family with 2 young children, standing outside of car posing for a photo, mountain road background.

  2. Cartoon of a happy shark on a white Background

​

Note:  I then had to photoshop the shark on the top of the car.  I photoshopped the seatbelt on the shark and then added the sigh.    Here's a link to the blog post about this goofy image - The Blog post was also written by AI:  https://www.drivesafemissoula.com/post/the-missoula-megalodon

The Prompt:   A happy female Christmas elf, dressed as a Christmas firefighter with a Santa like fire outfit, African American, standing next to the north pole, 3D, plain white background

The Prompt:   a pixar cartoon of a very happy and excited Albert Einstein using AI Technology on a computer

It's all about "Prompt Engineering" and most of the time I don't get exactly what I'm asking for until the 10th try.   It takes a bit of work, but sometimes AI produces exactly what I'm looing for on the first try.   Play around with it and let me know if I may be of service.   ---Schmidty
