Happy Diwali!
Happy Diwali! Short log as I've been busy with festivities and family events.
I have been seeing lots of AI-generated posters in my Whatsapp forwards this year relative to last, and it made me think: *Why do all AI generated posters look the same?* I think there is an interesting reason which I'll go into in another future log about the technology i.e. RHLF/law of averages as well as human behaviour behind this phenomena. What are the tells that give away AI posters and is there anything we could do to make it look less AI-y?
When I look at these posters, it's usually a mix of a few things:
- Too much busyness with words, details
- Having a lack of any fixed templates/references for the models to compare to
- Generic texts i.e. ChatGPT voice
- More is more
I think less clutter and direction for specific art styles could have the biggest gains for the average person using these tools. Wishing everyone a happy Diwali and all of you a year ahead full of prosperity and good health and all good things!
