We make a necessary count with the most twisted, funny and impressive works of art created by platforms of Artificial Intelligence (AI) throughout this year 2022.
Many of us could affirm that AI systems took control of the artistic community in this year 2022, after their power reached a new level to generate inconceivable works.
For each of the cases that we will share today, we find exceptional quality in the final result, especially considering the processing time it took to generate each piece.
In the world as we knew it before, each of these portraits could take hours, days or even entire weeks of work.
But for Artificial Intelligence systems it was a matter of seconds, minutes or very little time in comparison.
This triggered a strong debate about what the future of illustrators and other people dedicated to this trade would be. But that is a topic for another time. Here our short selection of the most twisted works created by an AI.
John Wick as a Pixar character
With the release of DALL-E 2 it was a matter of time before the experiments that were carried out in the most rudimentary version were taken to a new level.
The level of realism is not as brutal as in other systems, but they marked a clear prelude to what was to come.
Crungus and Loab
we dedicate a complete article to the origin and maelstrom of creations of this new generation of monsters or disturbing entities.
The general consensus to date is that it is a construction of the very imagination of these systems where they condense in this pair of beings what the human collective could consider terrifying.
In any case, each of the portraits of Loab and Crungus seem to be taken from a horrible nightmare.
Virtua Fighter and other retro games enter the 21st century
We reviewed this example at the time and it is on the fun side of what has been created with these systems. Where someone had the idea to take the polygonal graphics of the first generation of games with 3D graphics and make them modern.
The Virtua Fighter case was the most viral in all of 2022 but in reality there were many more exemplary stories.
All the art of Hidreley Diao
One of our most obsessed artists in 2022 was Hidreley Diao, who with her art showed us what classic American cartoons would look like if they were real people.
Each of his works is as fascinating as it is disturbing and it is worth reviewing his account in depth. instagram.
All Midjourney
Perhaps the most powerful and disruptive AI of all is Midjourney. Each work released by the platform is as disturbing as it is gloomy.
