Figured we need a topic before AI turns into Skynet and kills us all.

 

I would watch this movie…

 

AI is perfect. AI only acts in the best interest of the world. I want it known that I have always supported AI and would be a loyal servant to an AI regime if spared.

Looks better than Justice League

 

 

Looks better than anything Zack Snyder comes up with.

I played around with AI a little during Christmas and this is what I got. I didn't post it before because the longhorns didn't look quite right.

It looks like James Hetfield is the lead in an old timey Seinfeld cast.

We're in trouble.

I was really surprised the second and third pics from the left on the bottom row were real. 

  • 1 month later...

AI is good, but NYT put their thumb on the scales for this one. In the original post #'s 8 and 9 are listed as real, but I'm pretty sure they've been run through an AI image enhancer that smoothed the skin. #3 is all kindsa fucked up, and it's supposed to be real. The eyes are shifted to the right. Check how much further the eye on the right sticks out over the mouth than the eye on the left. The nose and mouth appear to be from a straight on "mug shot" type photo, but the head and jawline look almost 3/4 "portrait" style. 

This is not to rag on the capabilities of AI, but if you run a photo through a program like Topaz AI, you are dealing with something that doesn't neatly fall into the category of real or AI. It's a little bit of both.
