I have been playing around with AI to create photos that would require me to travel and hire multiple people in order to make them happen. It also would require certain environmental variables to be in place in order to make the shot the way I want. Things such as plants and a clear sky and a person wearing certain types of clothing and makeup would require quite a bit of coordination and planning. Milky Way shots require you being out at a certain time along with the right weather conditions and season. I created the following photos by entering my parameters to obtain a decent rendition of my vision for a complex shot. I then edited the AI Photo/Art in gimp.
The generated image is not perfect, but it can help you visualize how the shot in your mind would turn out. The output is an original that can help you to plan shots in the future while using AI to enhance your creative process.
You can expand upon the creations with edits and other AI software to make things even more unique and original. I think AI will open new worlds to the creative process and will make things possible for those with limited resources who contain immense creative potential.
What are your thoughts on AI?
Is it really ART?
