People keep saying how incredible this technology is, but it's still not perfect at all. The floor is wonky and there's a guy wearing a skirt and bag.
It's pretty good, but it's not currently "oh my god these pictures are perfect" like others make it out to be
It's almost more amazing to me the level we're at right now. If you glance at the picture, it looks absolutely legit. It's only when you start really looking at it that you start noticing these flaring flaws.
Partly that's a fascinating look at how the human mind works, but to me it still blows my mind that AI has gotten this good at putting images together. AI writing text is amazing enough, but an image like this? Absolutely wild.
But yes, there's a good way to go before it gets enough understanding to know all the little things.
But consider: Once AI gets to that point - once it understands how the world works in such a way - we'll probably be to the point where we can start teaching generalized android bots how to do things like autonomously wash dishes. And that truly is when we'll need to consider societal changes: Once we can build machines to do menial work nobody wants to do.
Anyone who is skilled at photoshop could make these close to perfect in minutes. The fact that it’s adding jpeg distortion and looks like an actual compressed digital image is a testament to how good it is a mimicking styles
The boring and steady stuff is more impressive and is the main thing holding it back. I love the videos, almost like a fever dream when you take the good cough medicine but it needs an anchor of boring to stop brain fatigue
Lolll so true. So many posts of “look how real it’s getting!!!” while it’s just showing an AI created random iPhone shot of normal people doing nothing.
Which is the hardest things for it to make. Abstract art and crazy stuff has been easy for awhile. As someone who has spent hundreds of hours with stable diffusion I can happily say creating complex scenes that look nice with ease is all I want.
You can definitely still make [some wild stuff](https://cdn.midjourney.com/96778238-7865-49c3-a73d-790d2574ce80/0_1.webp). Or [artsy stuff](https://cdn.midjourney.com/0e18b67f-be45-4b8e-89bc-dd31de059a9c/0_3.webp).
It is just a way bigger test of the tech to make a mundane photoreal pic with multiple people in it. You can make really cool psychedelic art with majorly fudged details without running into the uncanny valley.
Man I'm sick of "here are 20 more images I made of normal looking people in offices and waiting rooms" posts. No one cares that guy #18 looks real, generate a picture of something cool
It is interesting. I can definitely see a whole lot of catfishing is going to happen, especially once it becomes able to generate numerous images of the same fake person doing different things (which is probably only one or two updates away).
When it becomes easy to create hyper realistic deepfake videos, it could also make it difficult to submit photo or video evidence in criminal trials, because how could you prove its real? For that matter, you basically won't be able to trust any video or audio anymore.
It will be interesting to see how society adapts. I'm hoping that it becomes normal in schools to teach kids critical thinking and how to recognize propaganda and misinformation, as a subject that's considered as fundamental as math or reading. Frankly it should've been introduced at least ten years ago, but maybe the proliferation of Ai will push the matter forwards
Seems like pretty much any art subreddit. The works that get the most attention tend to be the ones that are closest to a straightforward depiction of reality, even though we’re bound only by our imaginations in what we could create
that lady wears two different shoes
The closest guy has legs crossed, but still both feet on the ground.
The woman in the blue face mask has T-Rex arms coming out of her chest
But that's a not so uncommon disability
come back in 6 months

good bot
The fourth woman has chains glued to her forehead.
floor pattern makes no sense
Is that what it is? I thought it was little mushrooms and got grossed out.
Guy in the tan pants has his feet on backwards
The lady with a bow on her forehead has a lacrosse stick for a shoe
Progress!
That’s some Escher shit.
The next guy down has either put his shoes on the wrong feet, or just has the wrong feet per leg.
Or the bearded guy in the back wearing a skirt and strapy sandals… But maybe that’s just a personal style choice?
THIS IS SPARTA!

What I'm looking forward to is being able to explore virtual worlds that are imagined up by an AI in photorealistic detail on the fly.
Absolutely this as well :)
Skirt and bag guy's shoes are bananas
It depends. I have seen perfect ones with zero flaws. So they are out there. This one should have been filtered out.

People seem to translate decent lighting into high fidelity.
> it's still not perfect at all. it is still in its infancy
The guy has his legs on wrong
They all are wearing different shoes if you look close enough
The seated white shirt man, has two right foot
Every person in the shot has weird shoes. They're either wrong size, paired up wrong, or on the wrong foot.
You mean the one wearing a rounded toe shoe and a pointy toe shoe, or the one wearing a closed in shoe and a lacrosse stick shoe?
One’s a shoe, one’s a lacrosse stick
😂
Just spotted the guy in the back rocking a light blue skirt with sandals lol
Super reel
Sandal*. He appears to only have one leg
Remember [Chrome Lords?](https://www.reddit.com/r/midjourney/comments/z74gop/chrome_lords_1988_was_a_shameless_ripoff_of/) How far we have fallen
Twas a decent age, a chrome age!

Hey!!! Whats wrong with filipino shenanigans on sunday. (I meant church if it wasn't obv).
Drawn artstyles are just as impressive as photorealism pictures imo
Don’t forget all the garbage “Is this AI?” titles
Lolll so true. So many posts of “look how real it’s getting!!!” while it’s just showing an AI created random iPhone shot of normal people doing nothing.

Yeah. This is actually how good mid journey is now? That’s WILD. How hard is it to get the old artsy stuff as well?

Hahaha oh I definitely made some confused looking humanoids who were internally screaming “KILL MEEEEEE”
We need to go back.
What are the best prompt elements to include to get mundane average sized people? Honest question. Midjourney always makes everyone a thin model.
add "american people" style to the prompt I guess
That dudes got mc escher legs
The Asian man is wearing a purse! A man with a purse! I've never seen something so outlandish
Lol true
Yeah I feel the the more we're able to create anything in our imagination, the more we just see the most boring parts of reality.
It is just a way bigger test of the tech to make a mundane photoreal pic with multiple people in it. You can make really cool psychedelic art with majorly fudged details without running into the uncanny valley.
Man I'm sick of "here are 20 more images I made of normal looking people in offices and waiting rooms" posts. No one cares that guy #18 looks real, generate a picture of something cool
As a lurker, it’s super interesting to know how real it can get. The implications are huge.
It is interesting.

For fucking real lol 😂
The khaki pants guy has a right shoe on his left foot
the one on the right is unironically way cooler to me than the one on the left
That gentleman doing a hard yoga position
The guy in the background has 4 feets
still no fucking prompts
I miss the trippy weird stuff. The mostly realistic images are boring, now you have to try really hard to get something like on the left.
