Yesterday my daughter and I explored #AI by prompting a new song at @SplashMusicCo , took about 20 minutes. I couldn't stop there... I made a React Remotion video component to auto-sequence a video with images generated by @ideogram_ai . Fun! YouTube link: youtu.be/munz_TKSEDM

The rings have multi-coloured eyes in an alternating pattern. A dark orb filled with stars and bursting with rays of light is behind it.
