How to create really cool art using a free AI tool

[Kurt]

Here's a good tutorial that shows how to create art using a free AI tool.

Here's the code:

My first AI generated art. I entered the text "bluesman standing at the crossroads" and this is what AI created. It even added musical notes in "banners" on the distorted guitar necks:
 




I think it's pretty amazing from a tech point of view. It got the context of "bluesman" and added the guitars on its own along with the musical notes. The "crossroads" reference was a bit easier and seems to use roads in general without the blues reference, but it did get the concept of road and it does appear the guy is standing on a dirt road. It took about 15 minutes for it to fully create this image.

This looks good has anyone tried it?

Thanks Karen...that's really interesting. I signed up for it and will give it a try when I get a chance.

It basically blends multiple images into different variations using AI. Here's the site, it's free if anyone is interested:

This image was created by the AI program above. I used the prompt "Jimi Hendrix playing a solo in Wonderland". It took AI a couple of hours to generate this after giving it the prompt.

Hi Kurt,

I have not tried this yet. Just out of curiosity, have you tried any "famous quotes"? The AI art would be interesting and possibly create a "grab your attention" feature post image.

I wonder what the Facebook algorithm would think?

Hi Steve,

I haven't created a lot of images. It takes some time and they limit the free version quite a bit so it's hard to get many done.

Here's another free AI art maker that isn't as good as the one above IMO. But it's a lot faster and easier.

Messing around with it, I thought many of the images could be used for things like book covers. They could probably be used as quote posters, like you mentioned.

For me, the downside of these AI art creators is that they are fun to play around with and can become a real time suck, especially since I can't really come up with a solid business idea for them (yet). They don't seem to have a high enough DPI for POD and I don't know anything about NFTs.

Hi Kurt,
LOL, the last thing I need is "another time suck!"

Have a great day today!
