AI art generators make it possible to create realistic images from simple text prompts. These tools use machine learning algorithms and deep neural networks to find patterns and styles in existing art. They can also learn to interpret new art using a large set of datasets.
Hollie Mengert, an artist who uses 2D illustration techniques, has expressed concerns about how these tools may be used. She wants to be able to control how her work is used by others.
Text-to-image AI art generators
If you’ve ever entered a text prompt into an AI art generator and seen it create a picture that matches the image in your head, you’ll know how amazing it feels. But while it may feel like magic, these tools use computers, machine learning, powerful graphics cards and lots of data to do their work.
One of the most popular text-to-art AI generators is Stable Diffusion, which uses a model trained on 4,000 Nvidia GPUs to output images in just seconds. It’s available online, as a desktop app and as an API for anyone who wants to add it to their own workflows or creative processes. It’s free to use, but does require a high load on your system. Alternatively, you can try Dream by Wombo, which offers unlimited image creation without any cost or watermarks.
DALL-E 2
DALL-E 2 is a text-to-image AI art generator. The software, named after Salvador Dali and Pixar’s Wall-E robot, allows users to create any image they can imagine by entering a description. It combines different styles, concepts and attributes to forge the final image.
It also enables users to edit the images that it generates. Users can modify the location of requested objects and adjust shadows, reflections, colors, and textures. DALL-E 2 also has an image-outpainting feature that can enlarge an image without losing its aesthetics.
While DALL-E 2 has its uses, it is important to remember that the images it creates are not necessarily safe. They can be used in ways that could infringe on someone’s intellectual property rights. Fortunately, OpenAI has programmed the software not to generate images of people, which could help prevent abuse.
MidJourney
Midjourney is one of the best text-to-image AI art generators on the market. It offers a variety of output variations and allows you to customize its images. Its interface is easy to use, and you can easily navigate its features.
To get started with Midjourney, create a Discord account and join one of the designated bot channels for newcomers. Once you are familiar with the bot, you can access the image generating functionality by typing “/imagine” in the command bar.
Once you have submitted your prompt, Midjourney will generate an initial set of four images. Each image can be upscaled or varied using the buttons U and V located underneath the images. These options will use up your free prompts, so be careful! These images can be used to enhance marketing campaigns, promote content, design merchandise, and even transform your home or office.
Creative Fabrica
Creative Fabrica offers a suite of AI generators including CF Spark Art, which turns text into digital art. It also features a large library of fonts. This is a great resource for print on demand projects, as it can create unique word based graphics extremely quickly.
Like other AI generative art generators, it uses Stable Diffusion and other similar models. However, it offers a more user-friendly interface and integrates with Zapier to allow users to generate images based on other apps.
It also includes an autocomplete prompt that helps users expand on their simple art prompts. This feature is a welcome addition to an otherwise complex tool. The app is available for iOS and Android. It is free to download, but there are additional subscription plans.
Pixray
Like Midjourney, Pixray is a free text-to-image AI art generator that works as an API and as a browser website. It also offers a PC application. Users can tweak the algorithm to create personalized images. Its extensive documentation explains how to change image styles, generate more images, and use different settings.
This app uses a GAN model and offers multiple art styles including cute creatures, fantasy worlds, cyberpunk, old, and renaissance painting. It also has a large image library to choose from. However, its subscription costs more than other art-focused apps.
Fotor is a popular photo-editing and designing smartphone app that now has an AI art generator tool. The generator is free to use and has no restrictions on prompt size. It is also possible to upscale the output.
