Emily Mouse Dreams Of Dirt is a playful paradox. An adult children's book. Innocent but naughty. Modern AI technology recreating the feel of hand-painted nostalgia. If some of your first furry crushes were storybook characters, you'll enjoy this tale of a young mouse's adventures into messiness.
Emily loves tall grass, playing outside, and getting her feet as dirty as possible. One summer night, she'll let temptation sink her deeper into her love of mud than she could ever imagine!
Story by human! Art by machine! 110 pages! More than one hundred and sixty illustrations! Multiple formats! Wowsers!
Made with Bing Image Creator using the prompt '1980s painted storybook illustration of a redhead mouse girl [setting] [action]'
Yes, those are compliments. Even the mystery folder has an wide arrangement of styles. From the spectral to the high-detailed sort of stop-motion dolls that were once used. They're all quite beautiful, and even the Obvious Duds have many interesting things. "Emily" is strange and weird, and yet completely natural ideas that manage to hit the bullseye on story and art, never-you-mind it's AI origins.

Glad you liked 'em, and thanks very much for purchasing the Deluxe Premium Valued Guest Package 2000.
I think this wouldn't have worked if I'd set out trying to do it. As I said in the intro, it evolved naturally, by accident. I got charmed by the li'l artificial mousie and she basically asked me for a story so I gave her one.

I look at it this way: I am not very good at drawing, and I don't have materials for it anymore anyway. But I'm aces at editing. So I generate a few hundred/thousand raw outputs, select the best, tweak the hell out of them, and there's an image I never could have made on my own. It reminds me a lot of how poor kids in the 80s may not have been able to afford musical instruments, but if they could buy a tape deck, they could make beats from sampling.
I also certainly don't have the money to commission something like this. So this isn't taking any hard work from anyone, since without AI, it could never have existed at all.

I'd like to see more generated incontinence in general, that seems rather rare with AI art, even more so with furry cubs. Same for diapers, which are cute too.
Cute story. I'd like to see more generated incontinence in general, that seems rather rare with A
To be fair, part of that is that the AI *does not want to make that stuff*. Ohhhhh boy I had to generate a lot of pics to get ones that looked right for those last few pages. It kept wanting to make spilled milk, or yellow paint. I think I eventually asked it to make a coffee spill and that had the right color, but then it kept adding ceramic mugs. :/

ok.... so you are AI "Art" fan... I am gonna explain that what you do is helping the AI to take job not only from writers and artists, but to develop AI algorithms up to the point they will make the whole idea of "art" obsolete which will at the end destroy the human intelligence. Why would anyone use their brain and hands if you can push a few buttons and get a few hundreds of raw results? I am very much disappointed in you. I loved your stories and I seen your art which was very cute and cool, hand drawn. What you are making now is a disgrace of your heritage. I can't believe that a person who wrote Runaway girl and Summer vacation of living dead is using AI. I am sorry, I am going to unsubscribe, cause I know I will not see anything worth here anymore I assume. I will carry the shattered dreams from your old stories saved somewhere else in dark place on my HDD.

>I am gonna explain that what you do is helping the AI to take job not only from writers and artists, but to develop AI algorithms up to the point they will make the whole idea of "art" obsolete which will at the end destroy the human intelligence.
Arguments like this have been used to predict the end of art every single time a new technology is made. That prediction has never happened. Sheet music never ended live music. File-sharing never ended movies. CGI didn't make cel animation extinct. What happens is that, when tools are made that make it easier for people to create art, they create more art.
Did CGI take cel animation jobs? Yes. Did it create a hell of a lot of CGI jobs to fill that vacuum? Yes.
Seriously, whoever told you these ideas is cruelly preying on your fear. I've listened to dozens of anti-AI-art arguments and they don't hold up. They exactly mirror all the other arguments ever made against new technology that brings art to a wider audience. 'Music sampling will take money from real artists.' Music sampling founded the entire genre of hip hop. 'Synthesizers will replace real music.' There is more new music now than ever before.
>Why would anyone use their brain and hands if you can push a few buttons and get a few hundreds of raw results?
Because there is satisfaction from using your brain and hands. That's why people create art in the first place. That's why I stopped doing Stable Diffusion GPKs. It's way more satisfying to put effort into editing and formatting things like this.
Also, this same argument was used when photography was a new technology. 'This will be the end of painting, because why would people create representation when they can just click a button and have a machine do all the work?'
>I am very much disappointed in you. I loved your stories and I seen your art which was very cute and cool, hand drawn. What you are making now is a disgrace of your heritage.
That's extremely rude and hurtful of you to say.
>I can't believe that a person who wrote Runaway girl and Summer vacation of living dead is using AI.
I have my own life outside of your image of me.
>I am sorry, I am going to unsubscribe, cause I know I will not see anything worth here anymore I assume. I will carry the shattered dreams from your old stories saved somewhere else in dark place on my HDD.
It is not my fault that you became this judgemental of me. I'll welcome you back when you get over the fact that things change.

>That's extremely rude and hurtful of you to say. I might mean something else... My English is not very perfect especially in moments of such great pain... I meant that what you do now is a offense to your previous stories and art. It is like a middle finger to everything I and I am sure many other your fans liked about you. (at least those who value human efforts and art)

"I meant that what you do now is a offense to your previous stories and art. It is like a middle finger to everything I and I am sure many other your fans liked about you. (at least those who value human efforts and art)"
Yes. That, itself, is very rude and hurtful. Your English is not a problem. You're treating your opinions as fact. The reality is, you don't like AI art. Instead of simply disliking it, you're acting as if I've hurt you by making it. That's passive-aggressive and manipulative. It's fine if you don't like what I'm making now, but calling it a stain on my older art, and calling me a terrible person, is rude behavior.
Your comments have exactly the same tone as someone condemning homosexuality or kink in art. 'Wait, you do GAY art!? I'm shocked! That's terrible! Don't you understand that your mortal soul is in danger? I'm just not sure if I can associate with you now. My heart is broken, and I'll pray to God to help you get over this sinful phase.' I get tired of seeing this among furries, because I guarantee that you've drawn things that someone else could treat you the same over.

The only difference is that Gayness does not harm, AI art development does. it wil lget to the point that people using their hands and brain to do art will be seen oudated obsolete and as freaks. "What? did you really spend 30 minutes on that crappy sketch?! Are you crazy? Why did not you use the AI? It can do the same in 5 seconds! and this will look better!" Oh yeah, indeed! Why do I need to spend time to make something if I can push some buttons, then pick up an image from the bunch the AI made and add some effects. And here you go have yourself ART, quick, safe, do not require skills, people spent decades of training and learning to get.
