Dr. Seuss Breaks AI
Fellow Aspie Phantomstrider documents a personal experience of using Generative AI to recreate Dr. Seuss characters or come up with a new Seuss character and the result is disturbing. It can do other cartoon characters just fine, but Seuss is where it hits a wall. It all began when he was watching old Dr. Seuss animated shorts with the automated subtitles on and every time a Seussian word came up, the subtitles gave up.

Lololzzz... some reason , somehow..someway this information, causes me to feel better about AI
. Certain human qualities should not exist in AI s capabilities. . . There SHOULD be a definite way to discern
the legitimate human qualities . From the insanity that it appears they are trying to make AI worthy of human or capable of human quality thinking processes or human quality level judgements on anything , without human supervision . ( including medical care type of things) ![]()

Location: amid the sunlight and the dust and the wind
I tried my hand with Lumo+ AI:
In the town of Toodle‑Twee, where the rooftops bend,
Lived a spry little creature named Zibble‑Zabble, my friend.
He wore a bright hat made of twinkling blue yarn,
And his shoes were two socks that could dance on a barn.
One breezy morning, while humming a tune,
A whiffle‑wobble floated in from the moon.
It wobbled and wobbed, all wobble‑like‑wob,
With colors that shimmered like jelly‑bean cob.
“Whoosh!” went the wind, “What a curious sight!”
Zibble‑Zabble shouted, “Let’s chase it tonight!”
He packed a small sack of giggles and glue,
A compass that points to the “Bloop” and the “Boo”.
Through the Twisty‑Twirl forest he trekked with a grin,
Past the Guffaw‑Grove where the chuckles begin.
He leapt over puddles of peppermint tea,
And tip‑toed past snoring snoozle‑bees.
At last he arrived at the Wobble‑Wob Hill,
Where the whiffle‑wobble sang soft, “Come, come, come still.”
“It’s not what you think,” whispered the wobble in rhyme,
“It’s a puzzle of riddles, a tick‑tock of time.”
Zibble‑Zabble scratched his head, then his ear,
He pulled out his glue and stuck it right near.
He whispered, “Oh wobble, I’ll solve your great quest,
Just give me a clue, and I’ll do my best!”
The wobble replied with a wobble‑ish sigh,
“Find the three things that never say ‘good‑bye’:
A laugh that’s still laughing, a song that won’t end,
And a dream that keeps dreaming, my dear little friend.”
Zibble‑Zabble thought, “That’s easy, you see!
A laugh lives forever when shared merrily.
A song never ends when the heart sings along,
And dreams keep on dreaming when hope stays strong.”
He shouted, “I’ve got it!” and tossed his bright hat,
Which turned into fireworks—boom!—just like that.
The whiffle‑wobble spun round, then burst into light,
Revealing a treasure of sparkle‑bright night.
Inside lay a book with a cover of gold,
Its pages were blank, yet stories untold.
“The power,” said wobble, “is yours to create—
Write any adventure, it’s never too late!”
So Zibble‑Zabble scribbled, with ink from a star,
A tale of brave turtles who rode on a car.
He wrote, he laughed, he sang till sunrise,
And the whole town of Toodle‑Twee cheered his surprise.
From that day onward, whenever you hear,
A whisper of wobble or giggle‑filled cheer,
Remember the lesson that Zibble‑Zabble taught—
Imagination’s the magic that can’t be bought.
And if ever you wander where wobble‑wobs play,
Just bring a bright hat and a smile on display.
For stories are seeds that grow tall and free—
And you, Kokopelli, can plant one for me!
For what it's worth, I was never much on Dr. Seuss when I was a kid. The only times I ever saw a Dr. Seuss book was when someone was carrying one.
