The picture is AI generated. (It's Aquatic Ruins Zone!). It took me all day to make.

The text - "THIS PICTURE IS NOT AI GENERATED" was added as a simple layer in Microsoft Paint - ultimately it's still a computer program. It took me 30 seconds.

And yet that is all it takes to knock 47% off the score.

To say it's 'likely' based on a 53% chance of Fake is not much of a detection.

"I'm just saying my art Generator is free and doesn't need a login."

Just kidding, haha ;). I just wanted to do a painting of Hazard painting, which is effectively three people in the picture at once.

The Zones of Sonic 1, translated into a memory of a dream - or maybe what you're thinking of just after you have watched a Level Play.

I was going to make wallpapers and then I decided about halfway through Green Hill, to make all the zones of Sonic 1.

They are far from perfect images. I like to think of them as memories of dreams. To do them I watched level plays, and thought, "What is most significant about this? What makes it a memory, and not just a level?"

Spring Yard Zone is an amusement park/pinball machine. Star Light Zone is an entire city under construction at once. Scrap Brain Zone becomes an oil refinery. But what really matters is that they are platforming levels with geometric shapes and vibrant colours.

As for Sky Base Zone, that's the final Master System level. Robotnik has Sky Base Zone. It looks like some sort of military rocket-base. In the sky. The base that launches Robotnik's final dirigible into the sky is literally launched into the sky itself, by nothing more than a city-sized oil refinery and Robotnik's mighty ego. That's a Robotnik-size flex.

I bet Antis and Pros would get on a lot better if they would just take some time to sit down and have a friendly discussion together. They have a lot in common.

This is a friendly discussion. I know this because that was literally the tag in the prompt.

Stuff is stuff, but I'm still Pro-AI.

And if Witty holds Pro-AI together then I'm Pro-Witty.

Hazard isn't me, but he's sort of me, you know?

He's not Sonic either, even though that's what people think the moment they see him. And in some ways that's okay, but at the same time, he's STILL not Sonic. He's Hazard Robotnik, the adopted son of Eggman.

And this is Hazard doing what the Robotnik family does best - Aura Farming.

People sometimes think I didn't put work into him just because he's a blue hedgehog but that is just not true.

Have you ever noticed that as soon as you start feeling good about something or like you're doing well or making something nice, people will just come along and shit on you with the deliberate desire to grind your confidence into the ground even though they don't know a thing about you and you have nobody to really talk to about it because nobody anywhere understands?

Just something cute I did to relax that just had to be beautiful and relaxing itself.

Trust me, I did not just say 'Mermaid'. When I make a picture, everything's there for a reason. And most of my art is made free.

And by 'Lore' I mean 'DNA Strands'.

I'm using Google Flow and we're doing Hard Sci-Fi in the Sonic World. I mean I don't even have a story for it right now, most of it is my thoughts based on Sonic Canon like inventing a new organ. I'm doing tons of research on stuff just to perfect its existance.

Before anybody complains about Mobian DNA being a Double-Helix like human DNA is, I literally requested the double-helix because all life on Earth has a double helix and Mobians are descended from Earth animals in my lore.

The DNA of the Symbiote is actually the symbiotic Chaos Organ, which has been through a lot more than a few mutations.

Mobians also have an extra cell in their bloodstream which carries Chaos Energy. Powerful Mobians (like Sonic or Shadow) have their Chaos Energy Carrier Cells literally reinforcing their blood.

I actually managed to get Gemini working with me on a comedic story about an Incubus falling for an Asexual demon hunter (Shadow) in a case of wanting what you can't have and it's frikkin' hilarious. Who says the official LLMs are prudes?!

(as usual the picture was made in a free local generator)

Sonic: "Look at my drink? LOOK at it! Isn't it cool?! Why do mortals put little umbrellas in their cocktails anyway? To keep them dry in the rain? It's so pointless... I love it!"

(incidentally I came up with that line, not AI)

Just something I made on a whim. The complicated part is always having two objects at once, as well as the background.

Yes, in Edo Japan, men did carry parasols in the sun. It showed they were RICH, you know, like wide sleeves show you're rich because you can afford the extra silk.

Number One is free and the original. Number 2 is the tradition of ChatGPT taking all your bright colours and dulling them down without asking you even as the rest of the picture improves. As a member of the Robotnik Family, Hazard Robotnik learned his Aura Farming duties from the best.

While Eggman will stand with with hands behind his back because his mind is the weapon, and Metal Sonic does Stillness-To-Speed because his speed is the weapon, Hazard, lead mechanic and Head of Security, stands with his hands in a state of readiness, an observer.

I used AI to create Sonic Lore based on literal quantum theory. I actually know quantum theory - not all of it but, y'know, quite a bit. I did the science. AI did the art.

This particular lore is the concept of what it is Chao are made of - and Chaos Energy in general.

You would think that Chaos Energy could be made of anything. It's not. It's made of black holes.

Picture one is the infinite energy of Chao as a fluid because Chao are water elementals. It's the fluid that is in a Mobian that provides the infinite energy to power the Chaos Organ which allows a Mobian in Sonic Forces to run into a wall and not end up a quarter-inch thick.

Picture two is the FINITE energy of Chaos IN A CHAOS DRIVE, as a heavy, inert gas. Chao can feed on it, and it actually degrades over time. The fact that it's a titanium/gold alloy and how you could possibly make it en masse is kind of something I put aside, GUN is known to play dirty, and sometimes you just need to place things in a little bracket.

AI already knows this, and its numbers. But the real point is that Antis could not only not draw this picture, they probably wouldn't bother to put in the effort to check some of the numbers for whether it's accurate in any way.

If you compress something enough, it will become infinitely dense - the density of a Black Hole, which can provide masses of energy.

The Chaos Fluid that is made of Chaos Energy that is the Symbiont that is living cozy inside a Mobian's brainstem from the moment of their conception is so very tightly compressed on a quantum level that its energy is effectively a black hole which both absorbs and provides and expels the energy required for their amazing powers - like even hitting a wall at Mach Speed!

I provide the science, the AI provides the art.

I know this because I know various physics of thermodynamics and the conservation of energy and a ton of biology. Compress something enough, and you can increase its density and gravity to the point of a black hole.

The Chaos Fluid in their Chaos Organs - that is made of liquidised Chaos Energy - is so very tightly compressed that it has reached the infinite density of a black hole and this is where they get the energy for their physics-defying powers.

I do the science, the AI does the Art.

Don't worry, there are no secret Chao living inside Mobians - the Medulla Oblongata wins every time. (If it didn't we'd all die in our sleep)

Yeah, but it IS kinda cute how it looks like the Mobian foetus has a tiny Chao flying around tucking it into the womb even as it gets to mutating using its millions of years of Koko Wikipedia information...

Basically, a Chao Organ is an EndoSymbiote that got too big for its boots and woke up the Medulla with a shock of Chaos Energy, which assumed it was part of itself and so did what the Medulla does best - told it to shut up and get to work with the rest of the vital nervous system.

Antis will tell you I haven't put any thought into this new organ which is the reason Mobians have powers. Or different fur colours. Or hook up with different species...

I won't deny Gemini needs to work on its text generations though.
