It seems that the images I see in your recent posts that's been generated my AI have this hyper-stylized attractive young woman as the center piece - is AI picking her or is that a part of your prompt?

I had prompted for a hallucinating AI, and I mostly got robots, but one was that attractive woman who looks like she is tripping out. Of course, Midjourney could argue that the picture really shows an android, not a human, and I could have chosen to pursue that line of illustration by making further variations. In this case, because I was writing about unpredictability, the oddball version came in handy, and I do think the picture looks good with all the colors. You want pictures that illustrate your points, but you also want them to be pretty so that they attract eyeballs. (But this is not what I would normally pick for an illustration of AI hallucinations. I also think the robot I used for my main illustration is really eye-catching.)
