Hmmm - my interpretation is that this is an example of a "prompt" for a generative AI "artist", and the result was something that "craps" over the original intention of the "house on a hillside"... (so, a bit of a commentary on generative art from someone who was professional cartoonist)

I think you are applying the wrong decade(s) of thought. This is a man who had to clean his pen to use it - it is very likely he is using artists "prompts" to practice his digital art (as he mentions its very new to him), which is something that was normal before the current era.

Ah - true true - OTOH, many of my artist (and former) friends absolutely hate AI prompted "art" and post much commentary to that effect.

Myself I find it very useful because I have no ability to create art/images on my own - never could.

(And the irony of those "feelings" are that this is probably how many managers / BA's/non-technical people feel about prompted "vibe coding")
