WaniKani mnemonics in image-form done by AI

Great idea and wow this AI is pretty amazing at creating surrealist looking art.

The free online generators are kind of cool and novel but this is the first time I’m seeing AI generated images that are genuinely impressive.

I also just found this AI about 2 weeks ago. They have an open Beta and as far as I’m aware you can create 20 images or so for free - after that you’d need to use their paid subscription mode if you want to continue. But here’s their beta page if you want to try it out. :blush: https://www.midjourney.com/

I got that too. Wonder if it’s some sort of place name…

If you have the time for more, how about 激, a white tsunami chasing after winter?

Incredible, this captures the very essence of Jourm.

Do you mean in this context?

When you need a radical to make a new kanji, you just press a button and the radical comes tumbling down the radical chute (しゅ). There’s definitely no rhyme or reason to radical picking, it’s just whatever pops out of the ol’ chute.

Let me know and I’ll pop it in ^^

It’s the Jourmiest face I could have imagined

I dunno, I’m not sure that guy looks like a Jourm to me. He looks more like… Olaf?

Also, are you sure these are done by an AI, and not some sort of speed-painting gnome?
