Anakin by an AI & I.

After much massaging of words to the Dreamshaper AI, experimentation, dozens of iterations and further manual editing by hand with my digital paint tools to fix things that it just didn't want to do properly, I've arrived at this image and now bring it to you.

I'm still not entirely happy with it, as the AI just doesn't seem to get the reflected lighting from the lightsaber onto Anakin's face right. The lightsaber handle is woefully incorrect and I know of no benefit of having the forefinger at that position (Fine control of a weightless blade?). The eyes are also an issue but AI are notorious for getting that wrong and it really feels like its using RNG to determine whether to give proper eyes or not.

This is an experiment and also my question to you, my awesome Patrons.

Would you like to see more art in this manner? Please comment with a simple Yes or No, or whatever your opinion is.

I'll always keep going with my traditional art, can't let these machines take everything away, but we all have to tack our sails in the direction of the wind. AI, if it develops further to AGI levels must become a partner to the human race, there's no other acceptable alternative - otherwise we get Shodan or Skynet. Current AI are powerful virtual tools at best with flaws that can be outwitted and abused. They must be used responsibly AND we should not ascribe these tools more power over us than is wise. Otherwise clever, bad humans will use these tools against us.
