Tried to get AI to generate a decent one in the style of Rob Liefeld (early 90s, specifically). Out of hundreds of generated images that were a varied combination of gory, gay, NSFW, and surreal, I think this one is as good as it’s gonna get. Man, it is really hard to generate sloppy, hastily-drawn comic book art, ChatGPT4 & Dall-E kept making everything look crisp as though McFarlane or Lee drew it.

I did this on and off for about a month. Weird to do in your spare time. Anyway, I uploaded a few highlights to this album if anyone’s interested: https://postimg.cc/gallery/Rq8CBys

    ChatGPT Query: What’s a clever way to say “Glorious” in the context of Klingon Opera?

    In the context of Klingon Opera, you could describe something as “batlhvatlh,” which combines the concept of honor (batlh) with grandeur or magnificence (vatlh). This term encapsulates the idea of glory in a way that resonates deeply within Klingon culture, particularly in the dramatic realm of their operatic performances.

          It could be a whole subgenre:

          Batlvatlh Metal

                How does this AI thing work? Cuz I would absolutely abuse it to create a tenforward metal opera band

                  I have a ChatGPT subscription and have access to DALL*E 3, which is integrated into ChatGPT 4, which I used to generate these images. I’m no expert, I just try to describe the image to generate as best as I can. It can get tricky sometimes if you try to generate copyrighted material; like, it can return a pretty decent-looking ship that looks close to the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-A, but it won’t do it if you ask for Discovery.

                  DALL*E 2 (the previous version) is available for free at https://openai.com/dall-e-2. It’s not as good, though. I fed it one of the prompts I used in v3 and it returned stuff like this: https://i.postimg.cc/V61KR6vK/DALL-E-2024-01-10-21-03-29-klingon-opera.png. That’s all I got, sorry. Hope this was helpful.

                    I looked into music generation AI. Couldn’t find anything that didn’t require money. Which is fine, I’m all for people getting paid.

                    I just wanted to generate some tracks and mix them myself into something silly. No clue what the status of AI vocals is though, and a klingon opera metal singer is key.

      Here’s my first foray into the realm of off-Broadway Klingon battle opera promo posters :

        Hey, that’s pretty epic! The blood/fire effects really help drive home the idea. I wish this was a thing, I never cared for opera but I’d buy tickets to this!

          To be fair, opera traditionally makes up words just to maintain rhyme, et al, whereas Klingin’d just be Klingon. 🤘🏼
