Weekend project made entirely with AI. Used cursor.so to write all the code on top of a fresh Next.js project. ChatGPT for the about page copy. Generated the images with Lexica.art. I hope you enjoy these tall sandwiches.

The random dismembered paw in the puppy sandwich makes me sad.

People keep mentioning that one.. he's just nestled snugly back in the toppings! I'll probably remove it.

I get it but there's a seeming irrationality. A puppy sandwich conceptually doesn't exactly bode well for the still-living puppies in the sandwich. I guess the "tall" concept sort of divorces the pictures from depictions of edible things.

I wasn't expecting this level of critique, but dammit you're right. I removed the puppy one. I'm keeping Biden though: tallsandwiches.com/biden

I absolutely love this. I really wish that generative AI was fast enough that you could infinitely scroll a single sandwich and it would generate more on the fly.

Oooh yes just one long connected sandwich would be amazing. You could do that with outpainting in theory but there would be some load time. Maybe for v2 lol.

No! It wasn't my intention to get the puppy sandwich removed. Isn't this the whole point of art? To invoke an emotional reaction? I vote to bring back the puppy sandwich, and add in a kitten sandwich for balance ;)
