What's next though? To paraphrase Hemingway - It all happened gradually and then suddenly.

In the arts, music, graphic design, animation, 3D models, and eventually realistic looking video seem to be the clear next steps. The key to AI art is that while the universe is infinitely complex, the visual form of most things humans can recognize follow a collection of natural patterns. Anything humans can do can be computed, the only issue is being able to set up the scope for the patterns we seek to replicate. For games like chess, a bit easier, for images that represent label-able things, harder but still manageable. The main problem of making things beyond this is giving a valid scope to the whole problem: what patterns, precisely, do we intend to replicate?

My mind is blown away by Midjourney v4, but the open problems are still plentiful (even before getting into video/motion, 3d etc). After a few dozen prompts, you quickly learn how the image generation is simultaneously amazing and dumb. The dumb part is the next 10 years of improvements. This is like Google 1999.

  Just getting the number of fingers and to a lesser degree arms and legs correct would solve 80% of the issues I encounter

    Right. And imagine being able to refine an image with the instruction to move the left arm down a little, and lift the chin up just a tad. Today that's impossible.

      Are you sure it is impossible? https://arxiv-sanity-lite.com/?q=diffusion+image+editing&rank=search&tags=&pid=&time_filter=&svm_c=0.01&skip_have=no https://arxiv-sanity-lite.com/?q=diffusion+image+editing&ran...

        Very cool, thanks.

    Legs, arms, and heads correctly oriented too.

      Some of those hands are ok/good, but even the second image in that collection has messed-up hands.

      I have generated some images with sound hands. However, I've had even more come out with defective hands.
