- smallnix 3mo ago> Not only did AI tools then help him unearth needed sources and fill in visual gaps I think that's clear
- noduerme 3mo agoI took that to mean filling in the gaps on the source data, not literally filling in pen and ink gaps in the drawing. If so, that's a shame. It pollutes the original and isn't what counts as restoration.

- Cthulhu_ 3mo agoMore at https://www.c82.net/blog/making-of-naturalists-library https://www.c82.net/blog/making-of-naturalists-library, you can see that the source material was actually in pretty good condition, just aged and yellowed; they used Photoshop's AI to stitch drawings that were spread out over two pages together. And probably some upscaling.
- ZeroGravitas 3mo agoThat link has a big section on their use of AI that ends with: > Overall, AI played a critical role in many aspects of this project for things I couldn’t do myself but the vast majority of the work was done manually the “old fashioned way” from creating the design and writing the code to restoring each plate and formatting all the text to designing the book and posters. I have no doubt that a lot more could have been done with AI but I still enjoy putting in the elbow grease to create something just the way I want.
