The Basics | Art Evolution

AI-generated art, created by programs like DALL-E and Midjourney, showcases the remarkable capacity of artificial intelligence to produce stunning, unique visual content. These systems work using a type of AI model known as a generative model, which is trained on a large dataset of images. Once trained, these models can generate new images that are statistically similar to the ones they were trained on. The role of 'prompting' is crucial in this process. A prompt is essentially an instruction or a piece of input data that guides the AI in generating the output. In the case of AI art, the prompt could be a text description or a partial image, and the AI uses this information to create an entirely new piece of art. This ability to generate intricate and imaginative pieces from simple prompts has sparked a revolution in digital art, opening up a world of possibilities for artists and designers alike.
