Generative AI in Art

Another Sunday morning, another item of my series exploring generative AI for art. I took the beautiful sunset image that ChatGPT had already created for me and requested a visualization in various styles to see and compare the results. I call this series Sunset in AI-Land.

So far, I’ve done it for several styles, ranging from pointilism, cubism, and pop art, to comic style, surrealism, neo-expressionism, and more. I like them. Some more, some less, but they are all impressive in a way.

This time I used a different route. I asked ChatGPT to create a photo realistic look that resembles a typical catalogue shot for a popular toy brand that manufactures mini figures and accessories for role play.

Again, I was stunned by the result. ChatGPT really nailed it with just a few prompts. The AI engine even created the clouds and islands in the back as plastic elements, picking up the style of the boat. Admittedly, the gentle waves stop abruptly behind the boat on the left, and the rope that connects the top of the mast to the rudder is a bit weird, but hey – it’s still a fanastic visualization of an entirely fictious scene that took just minutes to create, build, and “shoot”.

Nice!
