Strip by: Janek37

{the strip consists of four panels with photo-realistic renderings of the characters}
Ambrose: I've discovered an algorithm that can generate images based on descriptions!
Holly: That's awesome, Professor Ambrose!
Meridien: But doesn't it mean the end to natural human art expression?
Delkin: I don't think so. I've verified that the algorithm can't generate an L-shaped scar. Btw, has anyone seen Oliver?

The author writes:

All four images were generated using OpenAI DALL-E 2 with the following prompts:

A photo of an excited older man with mad-scientist grey hair, blue eyes and bushy brush moustache wearing blue clothes with patches on them
A photo of a young cheerful female student with slightly unruly, wavy, short auburn hair and green eyes visible behind big round glasses wearing a green dress with a floral print
A photo of a technical-minded young man with sunglasses and long, unkempt, black hair, wearing jeans and a purple shirt with diamond checks pattern
A photo of a mystical woman with hazel eyes and very long, straight, blonde hair wearing a headband and a dotted yellow dress

As a bonus, have a Samantha!

Prompt: A photo of a driven woman with neat, short red hair and grey eyes wearing big earrings and a red striped body suit
