Looking at these… I can’t help but wonder if these are literal examples of AI imagination?

I've started to ask myself if my own creativity is a result of random sampling from the diffusion tapestry of associated memories and experience on that topic.

What else could creativity possible be?

I do wonder what Dall-E 2 would output for a request along the lines of "A still life of a vase of flowers in a completely new art style."

Don't have access to Dall-E 2 or Imagen but I do have [1] and [2] locally and they produced [3] with that prompt.

Nice. Latent-diffusion has come out very traditional but the VQGAN/CLIP ones are fairly original.

From my experiments, the LD one doesn't seem to have been trained on as big or as tagged data set - there's a whole bunch of "in the style of X" that the VQGAN knows* about but the LD doesn't. That might have something to do with it.
