    The next generation of text to image AI. Could this replace illustrators?

    • give this algorithm some time and it will replace photoshop, indesign, blender & co. disrupting the industry. you will talk to the machine and it will execute.uan
    • AI recombines images/styles it has been trained on, ie. it will not create anything radically new, say a completely new style.drgs

    • composition ... otherwise its a tool for fools.. will be interresting to c how the difference will look of a 3d software wiz and somebody who can not speak itneverscared
    • with tech virtuosity.neverscared
    • Super interesting. Thank you!SimonFFM

    • I imagine in the future AI will write an article based on a certain current events then it will produce the cover art based on the headline.Chimp
    • The AI used (DALL.E): https://openai.com/d…jagara
    • doesn't look like it lacks the narrative when you give the right input https://i.imgur.com/…Beeswax
    • Exactly. Human input is used to compose the discriminative network. This is how generative adversarial networks operate.garbage
    • Once there's a large enough database of convincing output, it will be self-driving. Then just occasional update libraries for whatever is trending.garbage
    • And then: SKYNETjagara
    • And hopefully UBI, because people who have spent decades honing a craft will be obsolete.garbage
