Nah. When AI-generated images start looking real enough to not have obvious visual issues, and Ai text is indiscernible from real text (it's already pretty much there) people will just take what they're seeing or reading at face value. Plus chat bots will be responding to the image in comment sections and to other bots in there saying how great and correct it is. And slowly but surely all the mistakes in the AI content will start poisoning people's perception. This year for the first time there were more bots than people on the internet, and AI-generated content has exploded beyond what we imagined ten years ago. It's a major shitshow, and it's gonna get far worse very soon. Soon we will be questioning every image, every video, every sound bite and every sentence, wondering if it's real or not.

And also had a look around for old painters (Claude Lorraine) highly skilled in architectural paintings. To make them more beautiful, and less homogeneous.

These 7 images look the same, with the same drab look and style, because they were made in the same batch. They use the same model, basically the same prompt with only the name of the wonder changing. Sure, if you just write "Hanging Gardens of Babylon" in Midjourney and call it a day, you're going to get shit results. AI can make lots of things, it's just a tool. These aren't so much "AI made these" as "someone half-assed making these using AI". Since several of these images seem to be a mash of several of the wonders, I wonder if the prompt wasn't something like: "Hanging Gardens of Babylon, seven wonders," and writing that it's one of the seven wonders in the prompt is going to make the AI mash them all together.
@KasumiRINA2 ай бұрын
It depends on model they used. Style is really baked into whatever it was trained and tuned on. All generative AI does is process user's commands through a database (neural network) that was made by people usually with specific purpose (i.e. for realistic images, for anime art, for 3D)... Stable Diffusion specifically has thousands of models to choose from, many made by users and mixed and merged together.

Hughes refers to Dr. Stephanie Dalley who made the case for Hanging Gardens being at Nineveh. A documentary about her and her theory is available online or on DVD. I, too, am most fascinated with the Colossus. Enough is known about the statue's size and the materials of which it was made to know that it was impossible to have stood with legs apart. It would've collapsed under its own weight! A pose similar to that of The Statue of Liberty is more likely. I've been to the harbor at Rhodes and agree with Hughes that it more likely the Colossus stood in the upper town, a high point where the ancient acropolis was. Visit there if you go
