These 3 illustrations were completed for HBR in April/May 2023
OpenAI's ChatGPT was utilized for ideation and Midjourney was then used for previsualization.
The client never saw or knew any of the development that I put into these. All they saw were my sketches and my own words used to describe them.
Beginning of my conversation with ChatGPT. You can see continuation with each following image.

midjourney prompts:

more iterations/variations from the initial outcomes.
