Sort of like how you did with the "photos" you claimed to have taken of bicycle-riding hipsters coming back from shopping at the local Apple store on this post.
That’s a great idea, I will try one day.

Or even better, get a VR headset like the Apple Vision Pro to virtually navigate through a 3D model of buildings like the Boblo Island boat terminal which are a thing of the past. Is there an Apple store downtown yet? Or should I rent a Shinola bike to cycle to the suburbs to buy one?

At this point, who would believe anything you would claim to have done or even plan to do?

I planned to create an AI generated image of the Boblo Island boat terminal and so I did. Not quite what I expected but interesting anyway.

Over two weeks to come up with that? The "BOB-LO BOAT TERLINAL"?

If that's what you think Detroit's old and abandoned warehouses look like, then if you ever actually get to Detroit you'll be very, very disappointed.

I didn't create it, the AI did, including the misspelling. I gave it the prompt 'Create a photo of the Detroit Boblo island boat terminal'.

Apparently, it(Dall-E) is pretty bad at generating realistic photos of Detroit. That's why there is no such thing like the real building and it's a shame it has been demolished. Just like what is happening with the Packard Plant as we speak.
