Okay, so today I decided to dive into the world of AI image generation and, well, things got a little weird. My goal? To create some realistic images of a runway model named “Christine Kent.” Sounds simple enough, right? Wrong.
First Attempts: The Blobs
I started by typing in “Christine Kent runway model” into my chosen AI image generator. I hit enter, feeling pretty confident. What I got back were… well, let’s just call them abstract art. Blurry shapes, vaguely human-like, but definitely not anything you’d see on a catwalk. More like blobs of color that vaguely resembled a person, maybe, if you squinted really hard.
Adding Detail: Still Not Quite Right
I figured I needed to be more specific. So, I added some details: “Christine Kent, tall, blonde, runway model, wearing a red dress, high fashion.” I thought, “This has to work!” Nope. Still got some pretty funky results. The “red dress” looked like it was made of Play-Doh, and the “high fashion” was anything but. One image had her with three arms, which was… interesting.
Experimenting with Keywords: Progress!
I started playing around with different keywords. Instead of “runway model,” I tried “fashion model, catwalk, haute couture.” I also added things like “sharp focus, realistic, photography.” Finally, I started to see some improvement! The images were becoming clearer, more defined. The dresses still looked a bit wonky, but at least they resembled clothing.
The Face Problem: Creepy Territory
The faces, though… oh boy. That was a whole other challenge. Some of them were just plain creepy. Eyes in the wrong place, smiles that were a little too wide, skin that looked like plastic. It was like stepping into the uncanny valley. I spent a good hour just tweaking the prompts to try and get a natural-looking face.
Refinement stage:
After a series of refinements, it finally looked like a human. I was very excited and wanted to see more, so I kept generating images, but they all had this one weird expression. Finally, after many more adjustments, I got something decent.
The Final Result: Not Perfect, But…
After a few hours,I was not able to achieve the “Christine Kent runway model.”I got a lot of pictures,not one looks like “Christine Kent runway model”.
So, did I perfectly recreate a realistic “Christine Kent runway model”? Nah. But did I learn a lot about how these AI image generators work (and how they can go hilariously wrong)? Absolutely. It’s a process of trial and error, figuring out the right combination of words to get what you want. And sometimes, you just have to embrace the weirdness.
