Random Cat Experiment
I built a flow in n8n as an experiment that sends me a random cat picture once a day. The simple and unexciting version would be to just call the image generator with the prompt "a cat" and see how creative it gets. A more interesting challenge is to have ChatGPT generate a prompt for a random image in a previous step and then send me both – the prompt and the image – via email.
The “something completely different every day” part is still in its early stages and needs more prompt engineering, but even the current prompts work quite well for comparing the three generators I have available. From left to right:

- Midjourney
