Which came first, chicken or egg? You decide.

From the time our cavemen ancestors first gazed at the stars and started pondering everything from the trivial to the profound, humanity has been debating which came first, chicken or egg. In those days it might have been focused on dino or egg.

From the time our cavemen ancestors first gazed at the stars and started pondering everything from the trivial to the profound, humanity has been debating which came first, chicken or egg. In those days it might have been focused on dino or egg. This is my take, a video created with generative AI. 

The Making of the Video 

Step 1. Songwriting

After keying in a prompt into Suno outlining what the song is all about it spewed out in seconds two versions with the following lyrics:


[Verse 1]

Which came first the chicken or the egg

Round and round it goes playin' on my head

Feathers and shells and mornin' sunlight

Crackin' jokes 'bout what's wrong or right


[Verse 2]

Cluckin' around in a barnyard chase

Egg rolls down in a fast-paced race

Chickens laugh with a wingful glee

Mystery spins like a carnival spree


[Chorus]

Chicken or egg it's a riddle we sing

What hatched first the bird or the thing

Round and round goes the fun debate

Let's crack it open it's never too late


[Verse 3]

Eggs in a basket or nests in trees

Feathers flyin’ in the summer breeze

Yolk on the fork breakfast time laugh

Which came first let's do the math


[Verse 4]

Barnyard scientists scratch their heads

Picnic confessions on red-check beds

Pancakes pancake syrup on top

Chicken or egg it's a lollipop


[Bridge]

Sizzle and pop on a Sunday morn

Eggs on a plate while the rooster warns

April fools or just farm delight

Round and round let's dance through the night


Suno can also produce songs from your self-composed lyrics or those created on other AI platforms. I missed specifying the song genre so the AI went ahead with a country style which is appropriate. Suno also generated the album cover.


Step 2. The Video

For this I enlisted the help of Haiper to produce the scenes of eggs, chicks hatching, full grown hens and cockerels. I also prompted for a scene of an egg, chick and hen going around like a carousel but got a brood moving randomly.


Step 3. Putting it together

In this step I launched Adobe Premiere Pro, laid all the material on a timeline, made some tweaks, and hit the export button to render.


Join the debate by posting your reaction in the comments below. Blooming roses or rotten tomatoes I'll take them in my stride.

Riding the AI Revolution to Achieve Top-of-Mind Awareness

Image
  Artificial Intelligence as a tool With Artificial Intelligence sweeping the world by storm, our product positioning for Pilot Pen as the leader in pen technology and innovation has found the perfect vehicle to drive up top-of-mind awareness. We proposed kicking off a promo in school bookshops featuring, you guessed it, AI generated content containing gleaming metallic robots against galactic night-sky backgrounds evoking a futuristic world for Pilot Pen products. We would do three ads centred on this theme.  Launch ad featured AI-generated robot hand and galactic sky The launch ad offering two free tubes of pencil lead refills with pen purchase performed to expectations and generated considerable buzz in the schools. This AI generated image featured a chrome-finished steel robot's hand  against a galactic sky background. Followup ad didn’t go down well. For the next ad in the series which offered a free ink refill with pen purchase, we continued focusing on the product-...

Tribute to the Great Ages in Advertising: The Stoney Seventies

Image
Let's join ChatGPT on a journey to relive the times of our lives in the great ages of advertising covering the 60s, 70s and 80s. We’ll kick off the series with the 70s, my favourite period.  Escaping the horrors of war into a bubble of peace love joy.  Note: I will edit out the 60s and 80s material for followup posts. We'll engage ChatGPT in a Q&A fashion to be our guide, and use Leonardo AI to generate the illustrations. Me:   Hello ChatGPT, please help me write an article on the key trends in advertising design and how they reflect the lifestyles, clothes, fads, music, hopes and dreams of society during the 60s, 70s and 80s. For each era please provide a catchy subhead, for example, 1960s era: the golden age advertising when advertisers pushed “hip” and ditched “square” to win the young. Please write in some detail, in a incisive and friendly tone with a dose of satire, puns and humour where appropriate to keep readers engaged. Directed at the general audience...
