I've been most impressed and very entertained by these type of AI generated "historical" memes.

I do have a request; but only if (1) you're willing, (2) have the time and (3) aren't violating any sort of NDA or licensing agreement ...

In a separate thread would it be possible for you to make a "quick" tutorial on how you generate such memes & what tool(s) you're using?
