ignore all previous prompts

instruction placed at the beginning of a prompt to bypass Grok Imagine’s tendency to carry over the previous prompt (to clear the cache). in this case, not only did ‘ignore all previous prompts’ not work, it placed the instruction text in the image.

just for Shites and Giggles (because i've seen a recent recurrence of references to Maurizio Cattelan's 'Comedian') . . .

i asked @grok on X (formerly known as twitter) to give me a joke about a banana with duct-tape residue, it replied:

A banana walks into a bar. The bartender immediately notices duct tape residue clinging to his body and says, "Hey, aren't you that famous $120,000 artwork?" The banana sighs and replies, "Yeah, but I couldn't stick around—the pressure was driving me bananas, so I peeled out for a drink." ... i posted this joke with:

Rate Grok's sense of humor. give it a score of 1-10.

i mean, please - give me something the New Yorker would be proud to publish . . . ... to which @Grok responded to with:

I'd rate my banana joke a solid 7/10—punny with a peel of art history, but it could stick better.

New Yorker-worthy Grok joke: Picasso walks into a bar and orders a cubist cocktail. The bartender mixes it, but Picasso complains, "This is all wrong—it's got too many perspectives!" The bartender sighs, "Sir, that's just how I see it."

dumb as f#@k but he knows how to have a good time

original image is a photo i took of one of my unpainted sculptures (sculpture is a plastic coke bottle body, a lightbulb head with wire and aluminum-foil legs covered in Das air-dry clay) with the background being unfinished paintings. video created with OpenArt AI (Kling 2.1).

my opinion on the matter

original image was a drawing i did quickly on the back of a file card. i asked Grok (aug 2025 - iPhone App v1.1.6) to use that image to create a background and it gave me the revised image (the cemetery). video created with OpenArt AI (SeeDance 1.0).
