</center>I’ve been playing around with <a href="https://deepdreamgenerator.com">DeepDreamGenerator</a>’s newish “text prompt” artificial intelligence image creator. Usually it does quite well, sometimes with surprisingly interesting results. But occasionally, the A.I. has a spectacular fail. Based on the prompt “For what do we live, but to make sport for our neighbors, and laugh at them in our turn?” (from Jane Austen’s *Pride and Prejudice*), DDG came up with this.

>The lessons of Election ’22 in Nevada are multifarious —candidates and campaigns have never mattered more, independents are not who we thought they were and the Republicans blew a chance that may not come again soon.
>In a state where the president was under 40 percent in even some Democratic polls, gas prices were some of the highest in the country and inflation was soaring, the real, underlying story about this cycle is that deniers were denied. Oh, I don’t mean election deniers, although the three most dangerous (Laxalt, Michele Fiore and Jim Marchant) all lost.
