![]() Some of these generated artworks look kinda impressive. ![]() You can’t even get bored during these few seconds of creation because you get to see a glimpse of the AI at work: The app shows the modelling’s rapid-fire evolution - from starter marks, through a few inhumanly fast additions fleshing out the canvas, to arrive, practically breathless, at another finished composition. Then, in literally a few seconds - I counted <20 - the app displays your finished “artwork”. It’s super, super simple: You simply describe what you want it to paint - say “A terrifying tree” or “The worst sandwich in history” - pick a style from the selection offered (Mystical, Baroque, Fantasy Art, Steampunk, etc.), or opt for “no style” and hit create. Wombo, a Canadian startup which grabbed earlier eyeballs for its eponymous AI-enabled lipsyncing video app, recently launched another app, called Dream ( iOS and Android), which uses AI to create original “artworks” - based on a text prompt. Aka, the machine learning frameworks doing the retouching, reframing or indeed generative modelling, jumping off of a human prompt for their inspiration.Īnd while most of the app-based visual remixing of the past decade has focused on retouching/restyling/augmenting versus pure-play AI-powered image generation, that too is changing. Wait times for a finished result can now be essentially instant - a game changer for productizing (and potentially monetizing) the creativity and power of neural networks and GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks). What’s most notable about developments in AI-enabled synthetic media over this period is how much speed these visual effects have picked up, helped by ever more powerful mobile processing hardware. (Selfie retouching apps don’t have that problem, mind there’s perpetual demand for machine learning as a reality enhancer.) Although keeping “eyes on” once the novelty of an AI-generated effect wears off can be harder. We’ve had computer vision-powered 3D dioramas trend-setting style-transfer viral photorealistic selfie-tuning, selfie-retouching, face-swaps and - ofc - deepfakes and plenty of frivolous (and hilarious) fun with selfie filters (ohhai “Disneyfying” cartoon lens!) in between.ĪI-powered visual remixing has shown, again and again, it can grab attention. The reality-bending powers of AI have been kept increasingly busy over the past decade.
