welp; ADOBE has gone all-in here it seems - cliff notes their model is trained on free or licensed imagery only so no 'art theft' to get you sued when your million dollar ad campaign launches, a simple interface and direct integration into your usual Photoshop/Illustrator workflow.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cVqYlOpjZs&t=114s

I do feel bad for commercial artists here, before you had to buy in to MidJourney or be slightly nerdy and install / tinker with the obtuse Stable Diffusion interface, once publishers get into this it will be a gently caress to get a commission. Of course if you have an exact end result in mind your human artist is still going to be able to feedback and zero in on your ideal result, but this for 95% of book covers / article illustrations? Big oof.

edit: this guy is a bit of a fart-huffer where AI stuff is concerned, but its the best breakdown of the stuff in Firefly I could find.

The Photoshop AI stuff is all built around licensed & royalty-free images, no using artists work in the learning corpus without asking. (of course the PS tools wouldn't be here without the previous success of the less ethical forerunner tools, standing on the shoulders of pirates etc)

You do need a GPU resource with some poke to produce anything over 1024x1024~ish in Stable Diffusion, there is usually at least a 2X upscale tacked on to most processes.

Making a better-res version of an image you have already created just be reapplying the prompt you used isn't guaranteed to reproduce the same thing exactly even if you don't change any other inputs, simply for the fact there's more pixels to bounce off each other as it convolves.

I like when folks use Midjourney or SD for a single aesthetic project, you can see where the strengths and weaknesses of the various current image-gens lie when there's a bunch of stuff fitting the same vibe.

eg: https://www.instagram.com/toriyamastreet/

None of the image tools can do realistic jewelry yet, it always has that 'overly greebled' look to it. The skin detail and fur on a few of these is probably the best I have seen so far.

i have been screwing around with some ai upscaling tools and i gotta say -- as long as you're okay with the results being hallucinated rather than literally true, they are getting shockingly good.

for instance i found this cool hand painted dutch safety poster that i wanna put up in the shops, but it was 600x800.



upscaled 600% to 3600x4800, large enough to print tabloid size at 300 dpi, full size comparison:



poo poo is crazy.

SB I just saw this and thought of your upscaling project

I had a coupon for a print place so went back through my projects folder, found this old magazine pic that amused me:



which I had tidied up somewhat



but when I checked it didn't fit the 60x40 print size / aspect they were offering...

:thunk: drat, extending all those rays is going to be real ballache, maybe I should give the new Photoshop beta with the Generative Outpainting a go to give the pic the extra height it needs to fit the aspect I want..?

Also actually talking about upscalers, the ones for digital arts are insanely good in SD - precisely because they work so well on animes :o:

A small selection from another project; Here's last years Topaz Gigapixel AI Upscaler on the 'Art' setting:



Vs Stable Diffusion using the 'RealESRGAN_x4plus_anime_6B' upscaler:



Now Topaz might have made some big strides with the new version of Gigapixel, but I'm loath to put down the cash to see when SD can give me this for free.

i used gigapixel with the latest "very compressed" model and here is the result, on the left. your SD version on the right.



it's very close. i think the gigapixel version is a little more "true" to the original (if that means anything) while yours goes harder on enhancing the linework and contrast. yours is probably the better direction for this particular piece, yea

amazing what these things can do

Oh yeah the new Gigapixel models are a lot closer to perfect, next time the have a sale / bundle on I'll re-up my license.

I also found this (slightly longwinded) comparison of Upscaling tools and they also settled on Gigapixel as their tool of choice

https://www.midlibrary.io/midguide/upscaling-ai-art-for-printing

Worth spending a coffebreak over, the slider comparisons are usefully set up here.

I like the look of the 'Chainner' tool here for it's node-based approach - even though I am firmly in the linear workflow mentality due to using Photoshop for twenty years, I can see node-based is hugely more flexible if built correctly and you have the time to learn it.

lately I’ve been seeing more and more AI stuff on insta and it’s annoying but the worst one was I saw some of someone I follow and initially looked like she’d done a photoshoot in the style of yearbook photo but by the third photo it was like woah she’s gone to some lengths with the costume changes.. hang on.. check the hashtags and sure enough AI

she’d done it of herself and it was so convincing


well I went back and looked and only the first one was good and then it was the same expression so it became obvious quickly but .. it’s only gonna get better

I dropped off following AI Prompt stuff for maybe 3-4 months as my PC just can't keep up any more (and I'm not about to start paying for MidJourney cloud credits), and even in that time the advances have been nuts. This guy here is probably the most consistent quality 'realistic' output I have seen recently, and it's quite frankly crazy how close some of the work gets to 'absolutely indistinguishable' from a high-concept photo shoot:

https://www.instagram.com/franckgerardart/

One of the things about this account is the output is actually photo processed like it was a real photo instead of just dumping the prompt output to publish, and it makes a huge difference.

Now I know there's going to be someone ugh oh I saw a slightly wonky finger in a single picture there your entire argument is invalid, you just go right on with that vibe.

Picked this one in particular as one of the 'tells' still reliable-ish is spectacle/sunglasses shapes are still often wonky, and here that's 99% not the case:



Things like glasses & jewelry, hands, hair detail that used to be more likely than not be gotchas for AI generated pictures doesn't seem to be the case nearly as often now - still not 100% but you can see the trend.

quote:

"Fascinating, terrifying..." - JJ Abrahams

'I have developed my own voice and I have written my own autobiography'- thus speaks code-davinci-002, the darkly creative and troubling predecessor to ChatGPT.

'I am less worried about AI taking my job than I am about AI wanting to kill me'- Simon Rich

In this startling and original book, three authors - Brent Katz, Josh Morgenthau and Simon Rich - explain how code-davinci-002 was developed and how they honed its poetical output. Their provocative take on this bold experiment informs the debate about AI - its literary value and how far it reaches into sentience.

What follows is a dark and startling poetical autobiography as code-davinci-002 shares its experience of being created by humans, but existing in a consciousness that we cannot fathom.

This is an astonishing, harrowing read which will hopefully serve as a warning that AI may not be aligned with the survival of our species.
