I decided to try a theme with this week’s cover imagery to see how creative MidJourney could be with simple prompts. Each category cover image is a name tag + art style. It was pretty neat to see the variances. The goal is not perfection. By posting the mistakes, we’ll get to see how imagery improves over time. Here is the prompt for the cover:

  1. […] Chips and Hardware AI News of the Week: Most of the chip news is NVIDA usually, yet more and more Meta, Google, and OpenAI are starting toward their own manufacturing. I have to make the call whether to put Meta, Google, and OpenAI’s chip news under this section or their company sections. Lately, I’m putting each company’s chips news into the company category, rather than the chips category. This is the rest of the chips headlines.This week’s latest chips and hardware news: https://ethanbholland.com/2024/05/17/chips-and-hardware-week-ending-05-17-2024/ […]
