New hobby: Generating caricatures with AI.

Another hobby that gives me pleasure. I let AI paint caricatures according to my instructions. Here is an excerpt. President Emanuel Macron seems to have had a disagreement when getting off the plane in Hanoi, Vietnam. President Macron of France, the French rooster who married his teacher and about whose gender identity there are questions despite the suppression of history, apparently slapped him in public. He was asked about it by journalists and called it ‘banter between married couples and the rest is Russian propaganda.’

But what if it were completely different? What if Madame had redesigned part of the cellar in the Palais de l'Élysée? Would she occasionally give her pupil a lesson there? (Note. According to the official story, President Macron married his class teacher).

Madame Maqcron's speech bubble: ‘I will teach you discipline.’

We all know what happened in the Oval Office in the White House in Washington. There are plenty of videos of it. But it's difficult to turn such things into a cartoon in Germany. The reason for this is the new version of Section 188 of the Criminal Code of the Federal Republic of Germany. According to this law, it is forbidden to publicly insult public officials. The first judgements brought hefty fines and in one case the maximum sentence of 3 years, but because ‘the perpetrator had not previously been guilty of anything, only a few months in prison on probation. He doesn't have to serve it.

The funny thing about this paragraph is that there's no problem with Vladimir Putin, or with Donald Trump, but with Zelensky, things get tight. If I were to caricature Merz, or Pistorius, Strack-Rheinmetall, Baerbock, or Habeck, the police might show up before breakfast, although I find that a little mean. Before you find yourself in a police station, you want to have your coffee.

So you have to come up with something. "I'll steam politicians into species protection" and turn them into rabbits or hares.

Selenskij.... Is he already planning to flee after announcing the end of the negotiations in Istanbul on X yesterday?
As a rabbit, he shouldn't look so mean and the way he squats in front of a Chinese photocopier and copies banknotes with Trump's portrait shows his helplessness, doesn't it?

Hey Andreas. These AI images are impressive, have to admit. Really need to have a crack at using some of the tools myself.

Just a gentle reminder tho that even tho you may have a satirical intent the response will easily get political and we prefer to avoid politics no this forum. May not be the right place for any more images like this sorry.

All right. The hint has arrived. I'll only post things that won't embarrass anyone, especially forum owners. I've just been here too long for that... since 2007.
