What is up with the weird soft look that so many AI images have?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It’s probably trained on a fuckton of Thomas Kinkade paintings, just statistically, since his output was so huge. He also had that kind of lighting going on, so it wouldn’t surprise me if that’s just baked into AI image generation now.

Interesting. Never heard of him, but immediately recognized the style

There’s a good couple of episodes from Behind the Bastards about him, if you’re into that sort of thing.

Limitations of AI. That can't do it any other way. That's one of the ways to spot them.

It's spontaneously pleasant to see for most people, and I believe that's why it was favoured in the training process of the various image generators.

TIL what people find pleasant is kinda creepy

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Kind of, yeah. An another comment mentions Kinkade, that's IMO creepy too. And a lot of anime has a creepy style if you're not used to it.
