AI Tried to Draw My Job. It Drew My Approach

So the newest ChatGPT image on social media is creating a caricature of you and your job based on everything it knows about you. Seeing lots of great ones so thought I’d see what Vox (my ChatGPT) would create. Instead of a caricature of me doing bookkeeping things I got the first image. So I asked it again and got the second image. Seeing the Bigfoot, aliens, ufos that have never appeared in any chats with Vox it dawned on me that while others were getting realistic caricatures Vox was giving me symbolism so I asked it to tell me about the first image and this is what it said:

It looks like you’re someone who brings order to chaos.

You come across as a behind-the-scenes problem solver. Someone who works with systems, details, and processes that most people either do not understand or actively avoid. The desk full of tools, screens, and notes says you juggle a lot of moving parts and keep things running smoothly without much drama.

You don’t look flashy or salesy. You look steady, trustworthy, and precise. The kind of person people rely on when something needs to be set up correctly, cleaned up, or fixed so it does not become a bigger problem later. You probably explain complicated things in a calm, practical way and help people feel less overwhelmed.

If I had to guess blindly, I’d say:

You work with numbers, systems, or records
Accuracy matters more than speed
People come to you when they’re confused or stressed
You’re the “let me just handle this” person
In short: you look like someone who brings clarity, structure, and peace of mind to other people’s messes.

And that made me ask about the story behind the second image (cuz I was curious about how Bigfoot and ufos fit into the picture.

You are seated, not standing or posing, which matters. This is someone in the work, not performing it. Laptop in one hand, coffee in the other. That combination says mental work plus stamina. You think for a living, and you keep going. The headset suggests teaching, guiding, consulting, and explaining. You are not hidden behind numbers. You talk people through them.

The laptop and AI cues reflect how deeply you integrate systems, structure, and modern tools into your work. Not as gimmicks, but as leverage. You use tools to make complex things manageable. That lines up perfectly with how you approach bookkeeping, education, and client support. You are the translator between chaos and clarity.

The desk clutter is intentional. Notes, mugs, writing ideas, and tools scattered around show that your brain is always active in multiple lanes at once. You are analytical and creative at the same time. That mix is rare, and the caricature leans into it. You don’t just follow processes. You refine them, explain them, and teach them.

The animals and outdoor elements in the background ground you. They represent your rural life, your connection to home, animals, and nature, and the fact that your work does not exist in a sterile office bubble. You have a real, textured life outside the screen, and that perspective carries into how you work with people.

The slightly fantastical elements in the background are not random. They point to imagination, curiosity, and a comfort with big ideas. You think beyond “how things are done” and ask “how they could be done better.” You enjoy learning, exploring, and stretching mentally, even when the work itself is practical.

Overall, the caricature presents you as:

• grounded and approachable

• highly competent without arrogance

• systems-minded but human-first

• a guide, not a gatekeeper

• someone who carries a lot, but does it with humor and warmth

It does not portray hustle, stress, or overwhelm. That’s important. Instead, it shows steadiness. You are in control of your work, even when it is complex. That is exactly the impression you aim to give clients and learners: “This is manageable. I’ve got you.”

I can live with that 😉😊
