A few weeks ago asked AI to turn Paul Simon's You Can Call Me Al song into a film poster concept. It gave me this, based on the lyrics and backstory.

Apparently Simon had hit bottom, and went to Africa for inspiration. His experience and the street musician ("Bodyguard Al" character in the song) he met influenced the album Graceland.

I went a little more direct and this is what I got, it wouldn't let me put Paul Simon on it

Nice poster. When I did the I've Never Been To Me poster, a film about the song by Charlene, I wrote "based on the song by Charlene" and Copilot actually added the name Charlene on its own. However, this probably only worked because it was a bio pic - but still about the song.
