Skybox Labs makes really great backgrounds, although if you ask it to add people it will try and generate AI monstrosities! Being able to take the same scene and just change the time of day is really cool, my generative storytelling demonstration site[1] uses that feature to show the passage of time. My largest wish is that generation wasn't so slow. I get their main use case is actually generating 3d environments that can be navigated around (and their Discord has some cool examples of early adopters using it for just that!) but I just need fast generation of panoramas! Really what it comes down to is that OpenAI and their obscene levels of funding have made everyone used to AIs that give results almost instantly, but smaller scrappier startups cannot afford to buy a large % of the world's GPU supply.
