So reminiscent of "Whose Garden Was This?" by Tom Paxton

Joni Mitchell - one of the great pioneers of song linking to modernity! Another fabulous post Louise.. I love that you’ve chosen this song, such a strong message wrapped in her words despite the upbeat tone. I think the laugh at the end says much too…

That AI pic of the tree museum will haunt me for the rest of my days! And, my car is named Joni Mitchell. Guess what color it is?

Um, yellow?

(Yeah, that image turned out pretty well. I had to crop it - too many trees surrounding the parking lot, but the final version was spot on with regard to her lyrics. I tried to make a pink hotel and a nightclub with no trees, but every image turned out in a pink filter with LOTS of trees. AI is fairly stupid at this point in its development. Or maybe it was simply the person giving it the hints, but no matter how many times I wrote NO TREES, the images had trees. Go figure.)

BLUE! (my fave album)

AI is definitely the stupid one here! And in a few years, a comment like that might put me in danger 😳

Blue, of course!

Beware the power of AI? Or rather, beware the power of those who wield AI? 🤖
