I…what? Who thought this was a good idea, or even a thing that was needed? Why would you need to ‘modernize’ historical artwork? Why the great flying fuck would you do this by putting it through an AI program that - extremely fucking crucially - changes all of the minor details of the piece? This is absolutely terrible. Whoever worked on this needs to unplug all of their devices and go peel some potatoes.
Check out my milk bread posts if you’re into potatoes.
Can you share more about what information you think is lost in the high fidelity generations like the lighthouse and colossus, especially given you can toggle the images?
The fidelity with the lines and subject is pretty high right now via gpt4 vision and controlnet, but I could work on getting it higher – Which images bother you the most and what level of fidelity/auto restoration would cause you to have a more positive reaction?
My problem is the basic concept. These are historical documents, and you are tampering with them. It’s like translating the Declaration of Independence into leetspeak. As a one-time gag, it’s worth a chuckle, but the idea that it would be an ‘improvement’ or a ‘modernisation’ is an insult. The ‘fidelity’ of your process is irrelevant. You do not and should not need an artifical ‘higher resolution image’ of a centuries-old painting.
That’s what I thought – It seems like there’s a group of people this bothers and aren’t interested in regardless of the outputs. It feels ideological, but I won’t go that far and claim that for you or them – Anyway, this isn’t made for you and it is OK that we feel differently.
Thanks for sharing your feedback and opinion again! Have a great day!
