Finally trying my hand at AI quicksand images

After much time resisting the urge to do so (due in large part to my prior general inexperience with AI) I finally decided to take the plunge, so to speak, and try generating some AI damsel-in-distress quicksand images. After several days of experimenting with Microsoft Copilot within Microsoft Word, using only text prompts drawing on a consistent description I was able to generate several images that, if you squint and hold your head just right, kind of look like the same damsel slowly sinking deeper in quicksand. I hope you all enjoy them. I hope to post more, but I'll have to wait for this post to be approved before I can add to it.

Here're some more offerings I came up with, this time a set of variations on a "Rural Rescue" theme.

I like the last two the best.
Especially the last one. You can read all kinds of subtexts into that.

Thanks, Dave. I don't know if you're familiar with how Copilot works within Microsoft Word, but I opened one of my old quicksand stories in Word and then opened the Copilot sidebar, which gave the AI full access to the entire content of my story as its context. Then I simply told Copilot to generate an image of one of the rescue scenes "as depicted in this story," and Copilot essentially (if not always accurately) filled in the blanks about clothing, mud texture, facial expressions, etc., without my having to include those details each time in the prompt. It's really fun (and admittedly addicting) to play with.

A brown-eyed beauty desperately hoping that you'll become her hero before the quicksand claims her as its own...
