How it works
What happens on each run, in plain English.
Whenever a message arrives in the chat your Telegram bot watches, the description in it is checked for safety, drawn as a picture in the style and shape you have chosen, and sent back to the same chat as a photo captioned with what was asked for.
The picture goes back only to the chat that asked for it. Every request passes a safety check first: the AI is asked whether the description is one the bot should draw, and a picture is only made on a clear yes. Real or identifiable people, sexual, violent or hateful content, anything meant to pass as a real document or brand, and instructions for making a weapon or a drug are refused, and the chat is told why. If the check does not come back, or the picture cannot be made or hosted, you get a plain message rather than silence. The bot's own replies are recognised and left alone.
Before the first run you need a Telegram bot in the chat, an image generator and an image host, which keeps a public copy for a week so Telegram can fetch it.
