Here I’m using one of my landscape images from France, where there aren’t any people in the image. I decided to try and add some people to my image by selecting the place I wanted them in and simply asking it to put people in that space. I would say it can be difficult to add things with AI as sometimes they do what you want, I did have to ask AI different suggestions to get the best people. Sometimes the people would look at big weird and you could tell that they are aren’t real but it still adds some details to my image and with a quick glance you cant really tell that the people are fake. One negative thing about AI is they don’t always produce what your looking for, Although they do give you 3 options from you suggestion but sometimes it doesn’t do exactly what I need it to do. Making my image black and white helped to hide any odd colours added.
Here I’ve experimented on photoshop to show that AI can generate many different things. For example for one idea I can ask Ai to generate a city from 1950 and then ask if Ai can generate a city from the 2000’s to see the differences in times and how AI perspective is based on different time periods, I also used black and white photos to really show the differences between the time periods as different cameras were invented and had different affects to the photograph.
Here I photoshopped buildings around the edge of the pier and wall next to the beach and also added plastic bottles and bags around the area to show how plastic has developed on beaches and how its killing wild life and killing the earth slowly. Its a way of saying if people don’t start trying to ant to fix the world and its disasters. Instead we are making the problems worse with no shame or guilt. The world has already got many animals extinct and has global warming what else do we need to happen to get peoples attention.
Playing around with AI helped me understand how it worked and what to do if something went wrong, this was purely just an experiment. Although AI can help add some extra details it doesn’t always have an accurate effect and can make the image look very weird. For example, on the image on the left, I tried adding pigeons, however, that didn’t go too well as most of the pigeons are just random shapes added to the bottom of my photo. I also tried adding lights to my image and it added a big space ship, which is not what I asked. Although AI is very helpful at adding and removing things it can just make the image look worse. Depending on how specific you are and what you are asking for. Even though this was just an experiment its good to know what AI can help me with.
