AI and the frugal crafter


tried asking gemini the other day about making lakes with leftover dyes. the intelligence part was nowhere. the dumb thing first started by buttering me expressing admiration for such a clever creative idea.  ಠ ಠ then went on with environmental concerns about closed bodies of water. yep, so good for discerning and discriminating.very intelligent, even giving the leftover dye cue. with all the resources it takes to feed and keep ai one would have expected a better performance oi?

back to the frugal crafter. decanting after precipitating the remaining  madder dye. curious about the outcome as this is a first. wondering if the remaining liquid is still viable one way or another. ideas?
making lakes has  become the latest in the textile scene kind of reminds me about eco printing.
