MY FIANCÉE ASKED AI WHETHER OUR FUTURE CHILD WOULD BE PRETTY

my fiancée was curious about baby-face generators, so she tried combining our portraits. the first result looked like a tiny movie star. the second looked like a forty-year-old accountant trapped in preschool

she kept generating variations until she'd assembled an entire album of imaginary children wearing designer clothes. i told her this was starting to feel like casting a television show

then she asked an assistant to invent personalities for each child. one became a chess prodigy, one a pop singer, and one a toddler who demanded control of the family finances

we deleted most of the images and went for a walk. i told her real children don't come with character sheets. she said that was precisely why she'd enjoyed the experiment
