The creation
Little piece of paradise🌱
Analysis
Self critique
Someone pointed an inconsistency in style. The trees leaves are very simple while the grass is very realistic. The water should have foam and not look so viscous
If you pay attention you can see the edges of the model at the bottom of the waterfall
The man against the machine
I decided to try and replicate my image with AI models. I wanted to see how good they would look compared to mine
I used a Stable Diffusion model available at the time on this website. Safe is to say we’re clear, AI cannot even compare to a beginner 3D artist
Or can it ?
I had seen some AI generated pictures previously. Not only did this one struggle to understand the prompt, it also only produced disgusting looking images
I then decided to try another model, and ask Midjourney v4
Not on the same level
It did not understand the prompt at all times, but every single picture looks infinitely better than mine. Lots of work to do !
