AI startup idea: use stable diffusion to generate images of code that are then OCR'd and executed. The code could literally do anything. The sky's the limit.

This is one of my favorite pictures. It feels like it was taken yesterday… but it was taken in a Paris public garden nearly a hundred years ago. Everything feels modern: the composition, the casualness, the daring clothes, haircuts, and accessories.

The women are unknown, but I can't help wondering how they fared a few years later in nazi-occupied Paris.
