Apple Playground is sooo Bad

I may not fully grasp the purpose of Apple Playground, so perhaps this comparison is unfair. I gave the same prompt to Apple Playground and ChatGPT.

Create a cartoon to illustrate this, “counting my chickens before they are hatched.”

Apple Playground:

ChatGPT:

My understanding is that Apple is not trying to create an equivalent AI, but aside from functionality like App Intents, Apple has a tough road to compete with the top AI companies. Again, that may not be their goal.

Hive mind, what are your thoughts?

It has been addressed but I’m focusing on Playground. :slightly_smiling_face:

“Image Playground, powered by Apple Intelligence, lets you turn descriptions, concepts or people from your photo library into original, fun images in unique styles”. "Create Delightful Images " "Focus on experimenting and making fun images "

IMO, this is meant to be a fun app, like Genmoji. I don’t think Apple is trying to compete with anyone at this time.

Fun! I happened to like this one it did for “sheep in wolf’s clothing”

Perhaps that is not the app you are looking for…or, I don’t think that app is what you think it is…:).

I tend to use it to just have a little fun and share with family members. The styles are nice and help generate different ideas. I am not sure I would use the output on marketing material, but it is a nice tool. I like that it is included on my devices as well. Perhaps play around with it for a little while and enjoy the silliness that arises.

Is it worth creating those images. The amount of computer resources and energy utilized is wasted unless you really know that you are using it.

My .2 cents.

For me, yes. There are times that my brain just needs a little break…:).

I can get a different happy birthday with a family member or just a random hello sign in about 30-60 seconds that is just enough to break up my routine. Sometimes, I share the pictures with my family, other times they just get deleted.

Instead of scrolling through social media apps, I try out new suggestions and see what comes up.
