One look at body proportions will tell you these are everything but real.I though these women were real at first.
I'm hoping that the internet becomes so overwhelmingly fake and "dead" that its usefulness reverts back to what it offered in the 90s and people stop being terminally online.Coincidentally I found out earlier today that there are "virtual models" active on twitter that post nothing but Stable Diffusion-rendered bikini shots as if it were an actual irl model. It's kind of wild how someone is managing and posting a non-existing person's Twitter handle and posts photos from non-existing photoshoots and whatnot.
The quality is definitely good enough that you won't notice it's a render at first glance. It's interesting to think where this technology will be in five years.
I will check them out. I haven't been keeping up. I am amazed by these models.Things like this have existed for several months. See Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, Imagen, DALL·E 2, etc.
The AI just knows what we really want, versus what marketing tries to tell us we want...Why are so many of these AI images all exactly the same style and immediately recognizable as AI generation? Is there some super popular free website or phone app that's using this 1 model? Or is this the model that's "built into" stable diffusion or something? This style of "female portrait" people post is always exactly the same with only minor differences in clothing and hairstyle.
