Cyborg #14

in art •  2 months ago 

Like lots of other people, I've been playing around with AI generated "art". Whatever you call it, it is certainly fun. In my case, I've been using Stable Diffusion UI which is an easy to install variant of Stable Diffusion that also includes a GUI. I was able to get it running on both Windows and Linux without much effort. While the included GUI is nice, the easy install was what appealed to me the most.

To get speedy results you need a decent GPU with lots of VRAM onboard. However, you don't need a GPU to use Stable Diffusion UI as long as you have patience. If you don't have or use a GPU and use only the CPU, each image will take a long time to produce. It can take thirty minutes or more depending on your CPU speed and the settings you use. However, this is open source software so you can generate as many images as you want without worrying about paying a fee or signing up for something. The end result is that even with limited hardware, you can still produce unlimited images as long as you are not in a hurry to do so.

They cyborg images I have been generating have different prompts but all of them have either the word 'cyborg' and/or the words 'cybernetically enhanced'. The rest of the words are just further description that I vary somewhat between groups of images.

Including "cybernetically enhanced" in the prompt usually makes the images look disturbing or downright malevolent. They cyborg features are also, if anything, overstated. This image is an exception in that any artificial features are very subdued. Also, it doesn't necessarily look like she is intent on wiping out the human race. While not very cyborg-ish, I still like how this one turned out.
