I Am a Digitoonist: Experimenting with AI, Humor, and Cartooning

I create AI-generated cartoons to capture ideas, observations, and memorable moments from my reading and daily life. Sometimes it's simply a word or phrase that catches my attention and feels worth preserving, much like a selfie captures a moment in time. I've long admired the lyricists who adapt A. R.
