M.C. Escher's Shopping Mall

It's really hard to get something upside down from the AI generator. I went for Escher's stairs and wanted to place them inside a shopping mall. As a workaround I could get the stairs inverted and added a polished floor as a mirror. Still not very convinced by the results, here's the best one I could get after several iterations.

Prompt: a scenic view inside a shopping mall with a black shiny floor that's polished like a mirror. There are several inverted stairs in a confusing upside-down architecture, similar to an image by M.C. Escher. Some people walk upside down on the underside of the stairs.

I don't know who you're talking to. I didn't make any of these politics.

Electricity production from coal and oil combined shrank from 55.6 GW in 2010 (before the phasing out of nuclear power plants began) to 42.2 GW in 2023. No one "turned on coal/oil" to compensate nuclear energy.

The latin term 'fossilis' means "dug up". You might think about by yourself what that means in regard to Uranium.

Nuclear energy is not as clean or cheap as it is portrayed.

Coal usage is going down constantly. Coal is being phased out completely until 2035.

What do you dislike?

Coal is used less in Germany every year since 20 years and being shut down until 2035.

Other fossil energy sources like oil and nuclear energy are also vanishing.

Wind, solar, water and biomass are rising constantly. That's sustainable.

But it's not a workaround. This Web-Filter is a function that Google offers by choice. It's in the menu on the search page.

Why should they? The Web-Filter is a function that Google implemented themselves. It's not a secret trick or something.

Half Life 4 confirmed!!

Germany does not yet recognize Palestine as an independent state, but an independent Palestinian state within the framework of a two-state solution has long been a firm goal of German foreign policy.

Correct. Amazon for example: everything that is sold via Amazon in Europe is taxed in Ireland. Even if a product which is available on Amazon is produced in France, stored in a French Amazon warehouse and shipped to a French customer. Just because it's possible, they pay the reduced taxes in Ireland for such a deal. That needs to be fixed.

Volt wants:

To make digital rights binding. They call for a "Declaration on European Digital Rights and Principles".

Tax revenues from digital technologies where they are generated.

Guarantee net neutrality and reject contradictory laws.

Enact laws against the unethical use of AI.

Amen! I mean, Word!

Yes but Biden is a human being while Trump is positioning himself as a representative of Jesus, creating a cult.
