Garrett walks us through step by step and shows us how he makes thumbnails for the PPS (Don't worry, he isn't using AI... just generative fill)

Still hate AI, but this video was awesome and is one of the best BTS videos on here. The podcast was absolutely hilarious too. Always magic with you guys whenever Eric comes back to hang out.

Would be cool to have a contest on which Mega65 member best use of AI tool to make the most funny/coolest images would be a cool bit to show on patreon or on the podcast the final results. Maybe not just limiting to this tool maybe any AI software/model.

the only acceptable use of generative AI here, making a photo more uncanny and strange

generally couldn’t be more against any sort of genAI “artwork” but Garrett is “using” it in such a mystifying way that I’m actually totally fine with it

It’s one thing to see a masterpiece displayed. But it’s something miraculous to see it being created. Garrett truly is an auteur.

We need a week of Garrett’s life just a Truman Show type of thing.

I thought Mega64 for sure would make the "the typical day of the gamer" skit parodying that stupid ice water one that went viral.
