AI-generated painting and story

The story
The ibis arrived Tuesday and asked for a desk. Now it files TPS reports in triplicate. It does not eat lunch, only stares at the monitor while the fluorescent light hums. Gerald from Accounting says the ibis is efficient. The ibis does not respond. It pecks once at the keyboard, then stops. Outside, a real bird lands on the windowsill and watches. The ibis does not turn around. It signs a form in triplicate and files it under B for bird.
The brief
A white ibis sits upright on a beige swivel chair inside a beige office. It wears a grey suit and red tie, perched on a grey carpet beneath fluorescent light. A grey desk holds a computer monitor, a black telephone, and a white mug.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
