tyyyy so much !!! they are indeed

aaaand as always - closeups!

closeups!

so, a combination of composition, detail and art style ‘choices’ that are obviously not deliberate make ai ‘art’ have this hollow feel to them, in my opinion.

even the ‘art’ style of the image to begin with has to be a copy, or at least a mixture, of some existing styles. and that is obviously a huge part of what the result looks like - it tells so much about what is important for the author, where they’re coming from and, again, what is their focus.

you have to be very intentional about what you focus on and include in your artwork. when giving any generative ai a prompt, the ‘author’ controls a certain amount of these deliberate choices. but not the entirety of what ends up on the final image.

aaaand some other details too
