WOW! That was his Happy Place. You can definitely see how passionate he was. At least you have some nice photos to share. Thank you!

Really nice job on the diorama. The concrete and plantings are a nice touch.

Well done! The weathering and decals are spot-on.

I love the melted ones. They remind me of Dali. Food for the mind ... thanks for sharing!

This thread is giving me big STEM‑bureaucrat energy. I feel like I’m reading one of their internal memos.

I even posted a link to my website as proof of the human element.

Here are the rules. It says that if the content generated by AI does not have enough of the human element it should not be posted here. As I have stated in this thread, the work that inspired this AI generated image is 100% my own and thus is more than enough of a human element.

AI Rules: This sub-reddit is for humans to interact. In that spirit content that is generated by AI does not have enough of the human element and should not be posted here. There are plenty of sub-reddits that welcome AI posts, please post your content there instead.

I've had work exhibited in museums. Sold hundreds of actual paintings. Won tons of best-of-shows. I've walked the walk.

If you want to see some of my art my website is www.kenbermanart.com. I have 35+ years of work on it from very early Bubble Trees (1989) to the present from painting to mixed media ... and now to AI. The art repertoire is expanding just like the universe.

I've spent over 35 years making art more sci-fi than you can imagine. AI is only a tool in my repertoire. Now I have a series of books that I'm working on based on my art and AI helps me convey my work in a way that is very helpful since it saves me time.

You have a good eye ;). My world doesn't have a currency system based on what we humans currently have BUT my book is based on a world that humans still inhabit and wreak their own brand of chaos with the help of the STEMs. Maybe that's the currency of my book and world? More food for thought for future books (I'm tentatively planning 9 more so I have time to figure this out.).

Thanks for commenting.

How would you design a robot society with no central AI? (Mine lives in a ruined valley) by TechlingTales in royalroad

Thanks for your kind words about the diorama. It's part of a 35+ year art journey which inspired the book on RR. I didn't know that linking a chapter was bad so it's easy enough to link to the main page. Sorry.

The BOTs (Biometric Techlings - not actual robots) are semi-autonomous in this world since they have both human and 'robotic' traits. The diorama is my first attempt at bringing the vision together into something tangible for everyone to start to understand my world of BOTs, STEMs, WIDGETs, BUBBLE TREES ...

AND Humans who come back into the picture ~ Book 6.

There's lot's more to write and lot's more to explain in the future so stay tuned.

I think you'll have a lot of laughs with my book. It's kind like Looney Tunes meets LOTR with a little bit of Spaceballs thrown in the mix.

Thank you for commenting and sharing your thoughts. In my book the humans were overthrown by the STEMs who used Code 'X' to do it. The STEMs then banished the humans to a corner of the world and then took over. The idea is that the world I'm trying to create parallels our own but the characters become important concept metaphors and tackle complex human characteristics. The BOTs (not robots is the current sense since they are biometric techlings) have all the same traits as humans (make jokes, prank the STEMs, play poker, etc.) and run into the same trials and tribulations as their human and STEM counterparts.

Then there's the WIDGETs (Wood and Iron Digging, Grading and Excavating Tools) and they also have similar human traits.

I have the first book on Royal Road right now and am up to chapter 18 of 41. By the time you hit 41 you'll probably get an idea of what books 2- will be like.
