But I wonder what the process to generate them looks like. Are you spending your 401k on generative AIs @wowgetoffyourcellphone? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vantha Posted August 3, 2023 Report Share Posted August 3, 2023 If I had to guess I would say they're Midjourney images. Am I right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted August 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2023 (edited) www.imagine.art It takes several (and I mean several) attempts to get good images for each character. I have a library of hundreds of images now where I had to choose the best ones. Current AI generators have a difficult time creating historically accurate images and characters, so there is a lot of trial and error to trick the algorithm to give you what you want. You see how none of them wear helmets and I crop out their armor and that's because the algorithm errs on the side of fantasy almost 100% of the time. If you want to create fantasy Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones characters and armors, AI is great for that. Someone needs to train an AI specifically to be more historically accurate without having to jump through so many hoops.
