A.I. Generated - Castles, Tree Houses, and Bonsai

Wow, these are really breathtaking. I would love to see some of your prompts for inspiration.

This makes me wonder what sort of things we could create with a model that was specifically trained to bonsai/penjing. For many people following generative AI thought, it seems likely that we're approaching a point where the best AI tools for a task are lower powered but custom trained models. Imagine feeding such a thing on pictures of before and after major restyling, such that it knows not only what a bonsai looks like but how to make one!

Any, call me inspired by these little creations, I might make a bunch of desktop wallpapers.
 
I think you’re right and it’s coming

“tiny people scaling a red Japanese maple bonsai tree” (it’s not always precise or accurate in its understanding of what you’re wanting)

Prompt: millions of small aliens and tiny spacecraft going to war, stampede, lasers, smoke, dusty, dark, minimal light

This is my favorite of all the creations
 
It's interesting. Definitely a sign of the future.

I was just trying some prompts for interior design. "Beautiful bathroom, wood floor, blue subway tile bottom of wall, white subway tile shower". I could see how in a couple of years some people could be out of jobs...

Last one!


Prompt: “millions of small aliens and tiny spacecraft going to war, stampedes, lasers, explosions, fighting, smoke, dusty, dark, minimal light, dark red at night”

I hope that’s not the case, but you may be right about that. I wrote a paper recently on Texas A&M students using ChatGPT to write their papers/assignments. ChatGPT both admitted to writing some of them and then falsely admitted to writing others. It is becoming a problem.

My posting here is merely for entertainment/fantasy/inspiration purposes :) It is quite amazing what AI is capable of overall.

Openart.ai created these according to my prompts. I'm having a bit of fun with this. You should see my alien invasions!

I would love to see @HorseloverFat creates some of these treehouses in ceramic so I can use them on my bonsai. I made them out of wood in the past but they don't last long with frequent watering of the bonsai. The ceramic houses on Amazon look like stone / mud houses. They look out of place when placed in the canopy of a bonsai tree.
 
Eventually everything you see on internet will be faked in some way. Not sure if I would like that. As a society, if we're trained to approach everything as fake then I guess that is ok?

When AI erases the uncanny valleys we often see in Photoshopped things, it will be tougher to discern between fake and real pictures.
It's OK because then the real experience will be that much more precious.

Thinking about future generations... they need to be trained to not expecting too much from images.... that would be a disaster one you meet the real date.

That's OK. They will learn eventually.
PS: My children learned to appreciate chicken dinners so much more when they travel to Kenya for charity work. When they expressed that they would like chicken for dinner, the next day they found a live rooster with one leg tied to a string attached to the front door. Of course following that was a real experience in preparation of a chicken dinner :D
 
when it comes to art and AI, I have two central thoughts. One of them, is that we succeed in making AI tools accessible and open to lots of people, AI art will be quite a lot more than just writing simple prompts, but will include gathering material for inspiration, giving iterative feedback to refine the output, and even hand editing the work of musiv/image/text or whatever. It may not be as much so today, but AI art of the future will be a full fledged form of art with a high level of practitioner skill.

I also feel that there is a significant part of the artistic process that is in the hands of the viewer. That is, art appreciation is a very real and valuable skill. I think there's a chance that AI causes art to be shifted more towards that.

I just hope we're not dumb enough to let AI become anything more than a tool in the hands of artists.
