Crossover operations (combining elements from different designs) substantially boost novelty. The algorithm performs crossover in the semantic space of language, enabling conceptual combinations. We can also measure the expanding coverage of the latent space.

Ask ChatGPT to "design a creative time display" and you'll get pretty similar radial designs. AI tends toward average outputs. Lluminate counters this by systematically exploring creative possibility spaces.

It's exploring two latent spaces since mixing happens with image embeds (flux ip adapter with uniform crossover) and the sliders are found directions in clip-text space 🎚️

This feels like a culmination of six years of latent space creative interfaces (👴), but also a return to the joy of instinctual, unintentional wandering—like the original GanBreeder—rather than being confined by the limits of language and the burdens of articulating intent with text-to-X.
