> Agree with GPT but with StableDiffusion you are only partially correct. Visit /r/StableDiffusion to see the stuff people are making. People share prompt, seed, model settings etc and you can reproduce the exact same thing.

This doesn't really say anything, because it's just survivor bias. The entire purpose of that site is to show the successes. Most people get disasters every single day, they just don't upload them to the site. Even if I try the same prompt I will get a disaster image, as long as I don't use e.g., exactly the same random seed they happened to use. This is not even "prompt engineering". It's just outright playing with the dice.

Why do you think it matters if five out of six images are failures? If the sixth is a success, you have your image. The tool has worked. Glancing over a few failed generations is certainly far less effort than making the image from scratch.

Because it's a departure from the more logical and rational computing people have come to expect from "computers". For many people, it's unusual to have "fuzzy computing" become popular again.

You are wrong. Sort that sub by new to get a glimpse of ugly stuff. With SD you can't ask it for "very beautiful image of X" and actually get one. You must fine tune your prompt to get the right asthetics (photo, cinematic, specific artist etc) and also choose a better model. The base model that stable Diffusion released is not very good. Visit https://civitai.com to get a glimpse of how good the models have become.

I madeots of wallpapers in bulk recently with a good prompt and model. None of the images, all via random seeds, was shitty by any measure. Only images I ended up deleting had some usual Ai artifacts I couldn't stand.

Have you actually tried using these tools beyond starting it up and swinging your fist in frustration?

I have thousands upon thousands of beautiful images, each one more inspiring than the other and I did nothing or very close to nothing. You are belittling this amazing tech so much it sounds like you are scared of it. What’s it to you?

Have you ever lived in a time where it was even remotely possible to go from “astronaut on horse” and get even 1 decent result, in seconds?

I can’t even.

Uhh, I think you're replying to the wrong person?

My bad, I miss clicked somewhere.

All of this does feel like another scam where the tech is exaggerated and side hustles are actually the endgame.
