       I’ve recently tried stable diffusion and found it generally disappointing if we talk about actually following prompt and generating requested images.The first image was generated by prompt “a photo of red cube on top of a green cube”, and it can’t draw even this simple scene.The second prompt was “an extremely detailed and beautiful atlas of human anatomy, showing the full body”, and while the generated image kinda matches the general aesthetics, anatomy is just too wrong. (It would also sometimes generate three-legged beings when asked to draw a human).It just doesn’t have enough power / memory / data to draw a non-trivial scene.

       But there’s one thing it’s really good at: generating detailed abstract art of varying levels of creepiness.If we forget about humans and ask it to draw a mythical beast, we’ll get something like Codex Seraphinianus. If we give it a prompt that’s basically “draw something pretty”, it’ll give extremely detailed fantasy faces.

       I promised “varying levels of creepiness” though, so here you go. Trigger warnings: body horror, disgusting things and just generally maybe don’t open it if you’re in a poor state of mind.The prompt was “terrifyingly beautiful painting of the allegory of self-harm in excruciating detail” (+ some buzz-words). Why would I ask for this? Dunno.I don’t know if screen readers auto-read captions of “sensitive” attachments, but if they do, be warned that captions are also “sensitive”.

       There’s another interesting thing in it: it likes to draw. Given a completely nonsense input (SHA-256 hash of the word “dream”) it produced nearly coherent outputs. It’s not as high-quality as outputs of properly engineered prompts, but I think it’s beautiful in it’s own way.The End.
