My New ActiveRain Weekly ZOOM Meeting Background Photo.

Azores_-_Santa_Maria_2.jpg

Our assignment for last Tuesday’s Zoom Meeting was to create a AI photo for a ZOOM background that represents our personality.  Well I was not getting the results I wanted, so I changed things up a little.  Presently this is the ZOOM background that I have when I sign in for our ActiveRain Weekly ZOOM Meetings.  It is a photo I took when I went back to the island I was born on a few years ago.  The island is the island of Santa Maria in the Azores, Portugal. 

I decided to tell ChatGPT to use this photo and create a new photo based on this photo, but to zoom in closer on the homes and beach.  After a few tries the photo below is what ChatGPT came up with.

I told ChatGPT to give me smaller homes, but this is the smallest homes that it finally came up with.  So at this Tuesday's ActiveRain Weekly ZOOM Meeting I will be replacing my existing photo with the new one ChatGPT created.

George, I made a couple of port calls in the Azores.  We came up short a sonar tech for a bit because he fell off the quay wall trying to climb over a fence...alcohol may or may not have had anything to do with it.  He got pretty banged up and eventually rejoined the ship.

I like that background, good job!  It's good to change things up every once in a while, haha.

Expert guidance. Exceptional results.

Your story about shaping a background that carries a piece of home feels so genuine, George Souto, and it was great to see how you worked through the process to get something that fits you. Thanks for sharing the journey and the meaning behind it, it brought a smile to my day 🙂
