The advance of Artificial Intelligences
The advance of Artificial Intelligences continues to impress the whole world, especially when it comes to 'productivity'. Some AI, like Google's, are causing controversy, while others create impressive images in just seconds: What is this article about?
According to the TikToker of curiosities, @curioseandocontony, the interesting Midjourney AI continues to amaze visual artists. Among the multiple functions it holds, this powerful graphics engine can create images in seconds with a resolution of up to 1,792 x 1,024 pixels.
Thus, DALL-E 2 and Midjourney would be some of the most outstanding AI in the technological field, even being labeled as 'the best'. Through its software, anyone can request 'an image about anything', and this system makes it happen. This bot generates four images in 60 seconds.
For this example, a TikToker wanted to know what the villains of Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Argentina, and other Latin American countries would look like. The results did not take long to generate controversy: Samurai, monsters, wolves, and 'Messi as king' would be just a few examples.
In the case of Peru, the AI created an image of an 'evil Inca' with very sinister expressions, in fact, the character looks like an emperor from the time of the Viceroyalty. The case of Chile would also have a representation of its ancestors, but giant and even more 'terrifying'.
Faced with the results, Colombian users were not satisfied with their graphic model of evil: a 'cyborg' carrying weapons would be the representation of the AI of the coffee country; this would reflect the deep-rooted image of drug trafficking and the aesthetics of the gangs that misrepresent the southern country.
