So… AI has started sneaking its way into some of our custom orders.
Not *our* images though!!
Everything you see from us is the real deal - actual products, actual photos, actual colours, actual slightly chaotic people behind the printers...
But we’ve had a few custom orders come through lately where the customer has started with an AI generated image and basically said “I want THIS.”
And that’s where the fun begins....
Sometimes it takes a bit of back and forth to figure out what they’re actually imagining, what the AI has decided to make up and what we can realistically turn into a 3D printed object.
Sometimes we can absolutely nail it.
Sometimes we have to admit defeat and say “Yeah… physics has entered the conversation.” 😂
We’ve also noticed more and more people using AI for their pictures - that’s totally cool - It’s just not really us.
We like our stuff to have a bit of personality. A bit of humour. A few quirks. The occasional questionable decision and basically a little bit of Print Enable sprinkled over everything we do.
And we like showing you the actual things we make too.
Which does mean our ideas occasionally wander out into the wild and seem to inspire other people.
We’ll take that as a compliment and If something we’ve made gives someone else an idea, that’s pretty bloody cool.
Although if you’re going to take inspiration, at least let us pretend we’re trendsetters for five minutes... 😂
We’ll keep doing what we do - making weird things, useful things, nerdy things and occasionally things that started with someone saying: “I know this sounds ridiculous, but hear me out…” and those are usually our favourite ones.
Now please excuse us while we schedule our posts for the next 3 weeks.. The printers have now been turned off, the filament has been dried and stored and were ready for a couple of ideas to come to life with our forever setting the goal posts..
