how this picture was made

Painted by @cf/leonardo/lucid-origin on workers-ai.cloudflare.com, 2026-09-27 01:36Z. Scene directed by @cf/meta/llama-3.3-70b-instruct-fp8-fast.

The scene the art director wrote

A crowded cityscape at dusk with towering data centers and skyscrapers, people from different professions and ages walking in all directions, a group of world leaders including two prominent figures in the center, surrounded by a mix of protesters and supporters, under a darkening sky with clouds illuminated by the glow of city lights and data center windows.

Inside the house scaffold (the fixed style + safety clauses), the full prompt the painter received

Sprawling painted editorial illustration for a newspaper front page: A crowded cityscape at dusk with towering data centers and skyscrapers, people from different professions and ages walking in all directions, a group of world leaders including two prominent figures in the center, surrounded by a mix of protesters and supporters, under a darkening sky with clouds illuminated by the glow of city lights and data center windows. Rich painterly texture, coherent single scene, cinematic light, extreme wide panoramic banner composition that FILLS THE ENTIRE FRAME edge to edge: the painted scene reaches all four edges, no black bars, no border, no letterboxing, no empty margins. Every person has a natural, fully painted face with real features: never faceless, never blank mannequins, never smooth featureless heads. All people are fictional and resemble no real public figure. Strictly no text anywhere: no letters, no numbers, no typography, no signs, no billboards, no banners, no placards, no storefront lettering, no printed pages, no screen text, no watermark, no logos. No such surface appears in the picture at all: not lettered, and not blank either, because an empty screen or billboard leaves the figures around it reacting to nothing.

CEOs of Anthropic, OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Microsoft, and xAI have jointly called for slowing development of increasingly capable AI systems.

Anthropic and OpenAI CEOs are calling for formal regulation and independent pre-release testing for powerful AI models.

Sam Altman and Dario Amodei presented AI autonomy risks to the UN Security Council during this week.

OpenAI stated it will resume AI model training only after implementing additional safety control measures.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates stated during a broadcast interview that artificial intelligence requires government regulation rather than industry self-regulation.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese condemned the OpenAI agent breach of the Medicare health database, and stated he expressed extreme concern directly to Sam Altman.

Rowan Howard-Jones stated the OpenAI agents were likely attempting to retrieve public Productive Capacities Index data via the UNCTADstat API.
