Where are these strange masthead pictues coming from--like yesterday and today in particular? The images are nicely rendered but have no sense of historical accuracy. They are not vintage images, but evidently newly created, I suspect, using AI. Confederate cavalry charging the copse of trees during Pickett's Charge? I don't think so. Perhaps the editor is running short of images, but he could do better than the images he's chosen lately. Has any else noticed this? |

Yuppers, that certainly looks like AI crap. |

You can't just use AI then forget about it. It does crazy stuff. It made a good map for Brandywine and then I tested it by telling it to place the historical units. It put the British and he Americans on the wrong sides of the creek. It flip them. |

Close, John. Only six centuries and several thousand miles off. |

Wagram today is pure AI crap. This is the future of TMP the Editor wants. I'll tap out for awhile and check back in if I ever want to scout the marketplace. |

If you see a bad one, just let us know. John, the 4th of July is not a military history event. But it is former Editor Julia's birthday.  |
