Why are the hands so weird? Understanding Image Generation in AI

<p><em>A brief look into image generation and AI.</em></p> <p>Imagine looking at a picture of a duck on a screen that&rsquo;s all fuzzy with static.</p> <p>If you narrow your eyes, you might make out the shape of the duck.</p> <p>You could even try painting over the static to make the duck clearer.</p> <p>Think of it like spotting a duck through a bunch of static on the screen.</p> <p>You might squint, draw some lines to represent the duck, squint at those lines, and eventually create a rough picture of a duck &mdash; not exactly the same as the real duck,<strong>&nbsp;but sort of recognizable.</strong></p> <p><img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:700/1*xcwrsELpqEqKVqWNGPEqoA.png" style="height:700px; width:700px" /></p> <p>prompt : drawing of rubber duck floating in bathtub</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:700/1*WJO5R4efN1Bveqnf8hbZ9A.png" style="height:700px; width:700px" /></p> <p>prompt : static</p> <h1>Now, picture looking at just random static on the screen, and somehow convincing yourself that there&rsquo;s a duck hidden in there.</h1> <p>With a lot of effort, you might squint and work your way from a super fuzzy image of a duck to a less fuzzy one, until you can finally see a clear duck image..</p> <p><strong>This process is named &ldquo;stable diffusion.&rdquo;</strong></p> <h1>How it works:</h1> <p>Researchers, Architects, and Scientists,&nbsp;<strong>took millions of images and added a bit of noise to them.</strong></p> <p>Then, they placed them in a special space and trained a model to clean them up, to&nbsp;<strong>remove the noise.</strong></p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@nycuxdesign/why-are-the-hands-so-weird-understanding-image-generation-in-ai-c6ffc0ddc356"><strong>Visit Now</strong></a></p>
