Vibe coding might not be real, but vibe graphics design certainly is. https://imgur.com/a/internet-DWzJ26B Anyone can make images and video now.

Midjourney with style references is just about the easiest way right now for an absolute noob to get good aesthetics

this is amazing. I just wish models would have more non-textual controls. I don't want to TYPE my instructions. We need a better UI for editing images with AI.

You want to use a mouse and keyboard and learn 20 buttons like it's 1990?

yes! for extremely precise edits.

I can imagine an automated blackmail bot that scrapes image, video, voice samples from anyone with the most meagre online presence, which then creates high resolution videos of that person doing the most horrid acts, then threatening to share those videos with that person's family, friends and business contacts unless they are paid $5000 in a cryptocurrency to an anonymous address. And further, I can imagine some per…

Been testing both Flux Krea and Nano Banana for image editing tasks. Honestly, they’re closer than people think. Flux Krea nails character consistency and semantic edits—especially when working with multi-turn prompts. Nano Banana (aka Gemini 2.5 Flash) feels snappier and handles multi-image composition surprisingly well.

I used this test site to benchmark them side by side. https://flux-krea.app/ Results? Comparable quality, but different strengths. Flux is better for precision edits and prompt adherence. Nano Banana shines in speed and creative blending. Pick your tool based on workflow, not hype.

Are those oil derricks, or wind turbines? Who cares! Graphic design is easy now!

I added a picture of myself as an attachment and asked it to put me in a professional dev environment. Worked very good and was also very funny. Then I asked it to put me in a scene where I'm meeting Frank Zappa in his studio. Then it gave an error with "Content blocked, Content not permitted". Interesting..
