AI often struggles with ant pictures (too many/missing legs), but if you focus on the head it can create some nice images. Some cyborg ants I generated:

These could be of use for some good ant memes.

Keep ordinary ants in extraordinary ways.

I like how the ai generated pictures make it a many legged monster with 9 abdomens, 3 antennas and 7 eyes


Currently keeping:

 

1x Formica subsericea, (used to be polygynous) 20+ workers

1x Lasius umbratus, (Workers accepted) 25 workers with host brood (I think they are dead now lol)

1x Crematogaster cerasi 4 workers with brood (still growing)

 

As you watch your ants march, remember: every journey begins with a single step (or queen)-not just towards you, but towards a future woven by diligence and shared dreams - Me

I was curious about this as well, so I tried it too! I used OpenAI's image generator.

Prompt: Create an image of an ant queen sitting on a dirt throne with a crown on her head

 

Result: Didn't quite work out, but the effect is pretty cool.

Prompt:Create an image of an ant queen 

 

Result: Not really a queen, more like a Camponotus media or major.

DALL·E 2024-09-17 18.56.20 - A detailed and majestic ant queen, depicted in a naturalistic style. She is slightly larger than a typical ant, with an elongated body and a distincti.jpg

 

Conclusion: Not really what I was looking for, but a cool experiment and I love the texture on the images!

And if your ant website doesn't have enough (female) fans just generate some:

 

ComfyUI 00560  (1)


Kids love my 100% escape proof outworlds:
