I just realised how these AI generated images could potentially confuse things in the future when it comes to historical research, if any of these images get saved and misplaced and miscategorised by people not knowing better or just by mistake. It likely wont happen any time soon, except perhaps in armature circles, but as time goes on if care isn't taken then I wonder if the odds of this getting mixed up could grow.

@bluefox5331 11 месяцев назад

There is a lot of bad stuff that can happen and the better they get the worse it will be. Anyone could make a picture of you kicking a dog, or of you naked (that is already happening), or any sort of fake news photographs that could sow misinformation.

@Aeackk 11 месяцев назад

@lonestarr1490 11 месяцев назад

I don't think so. I mean, people continue to paint knock-off "historical" portraits (of celebrities, for instance) and I'm not aware of any of those ever getting confused for an actual historical piece. And researchers in the future, with AI being more widespread by an order of magnitude presumably, will be hyper-aware of that potential pitfall. I think the larger issue is going to be with intentional falsification of history rather than with the accidental kind.

@alexisd5274 11 месяцев назад

The thing with AI is it's not actually "artificial intelligence", it's just imitative programs. It's of course going to pull some elements of historical accuracy like silhouette, textile details, etc because it is directly copying from historical portraits from the eras you are specifying. The problem is it's not actually "intelligence", and it has no ability to actually understand what it is copying and why, so that's why you get details like a waist girdle being turned into a necklace.

@wakingcharade 11 месяцев назад

if it were directly copying it'd be way better at it than what this is showing. What its actually doing is trying to come up with its own map of context based entirely on the massive amount of images its been given. it takes a random mix of pixels and then runs it back through its own image identifying algorithm searching for which change in the pixels brings it closer to pinging as the prompt query. So its moving pixels around until it gets a vague "historical portrait of a woman in the 1570s" vibe off what its made. if it were just cutting bits of actual portraits and shuffling them around, you'd expect ruffs that look like ruffs not vaguely approximately ruff suggesting pixels

It is actual artificial intelligence. I mean the standards for AI and actual human intelligence is very far that some simpler algorithms could be considered to be AI.

@KristinRingstad 11 месяцев назад

I think this is fun! But i would caution not to take these too seriously for another reason. It seems clear to me that this AI was trained on European history. As far I can see Bernadette did not specify Western European portraiture but she got images of pretty fair skinned folks and ""historical dress""" from mostly western Europe. I wish the AI had generated some portraits from some other parts of the world or cultures. There is nothing wrong with European history, but I would love to see some more varied cultural dress when searching like this (this goes for search engine results as well)

@KarolaTea 11 месяцев назад

I wonder if just inputting the search terms in another language would change the results. While search engines can generally translate between searches and results, they do tend to give you more results in the language you searched for. And there's probably a lot more English sources about white Europeans than, say, Egyptian fashion. Try searching in Arabic and see what you get. So the issue goes beyond machines, and back to general western-eurocentrism, sinces machines can only be as "smart" as the humans that build them (or supply data). But yeah! I wonder if one day we can "teach" machines the social situations and implications, like Bernatte also mentions in the video, and if machines then would make an effort to actively consider those factors and try to even them out.

@Nickle314 11 месяцев назад

I disagree. I was writing up family recipes, with the idea of a small run of books, for friends and family. I'd started making the dishes, photographing them. That's a huge amount of work. So with AI, I switched. Please generate me a water colour of "describe the dish". I want a white background etc. You get the gist. You tweak the results and there you are. Picture generated, cut and paste, job done. It gives a far more pleasing result. It would have taken me over a year's work to paint the same. Somethings don't work. For example paint me a picture of a roast goose, mixed feathers and roast, with odd anatomy. The same way AI has problems with fingers, and I hasten to add, lots of other artists too. But there are solutions to that. Teach the AI from 3d models for example.

@Telhias 11 месяцев назад

This is raw unguided AI though. A model untrained for the specific task at hand and without any sort of guidance through a control net. You can fix nearly all of these problems by putting a bit more work into the AI beyond writing a short prompt.

@tomboy2980 11 месяцев назад

I had a suspicion that the portraits would get more accurate the more modern the time period became- the more images that are available in the training database, the more patterns the machine can recognize and reproduce. We simply have less portraits from the 1500s than we do from the 1800s, so I had a theory that once we got past the wide adoption of the printing press and photography, the AI images would become more accurate because there'd be more references to train on. It's crazy how we have hundreds if not thousands of portraits from the 1500s in Europe (not to mention surviving garments) that would allow historians to make confident guesses about what things should look like, but a thousand different images of X is a very very tiny drop in the bucket of the billions of images that comprises its training database, so the AI can't (yet) do the same competently. The AI doesn't even KNOW what patterns it's recognizing beyond the fact that it appears in other images with the same keyword attached. Regardless, it made sense that the Edwardian portraits were the most passable 😅

Construction is how you can tell an AI image from a real one photographed or painted. If you give an algorithm a string of pixels, it won't know what 'construction' is. Hair fusing into the face/ glasses, or splitting/ merging, window panes that don't make sense, all sorts of structural things that look okay.. from far away or with squinted eyes

@LilacVeritas 11 месяцев назад

Yeah they lack an internal model of the world, which is why we should really call these image generators Diffusion Models or GANs- it lacks an understanding of humans, clothes, fashion (intelligence), instead it just associates certain groups of pixels from its training data with certain prompts. It doesn't first construct the concept of a human in Europe in the 1860s of a certain class, poses the model, and paints in the style of the time, it only have pixels and numbers. Of course to go beyond that means you'll have something approaching an artificial general intelligence

@ericlarsen2293 11 месяцев назад

Such a fun video! An interesting aspect of these generative "AI" programs is that they aren't trained to understand the context of what they're producing. They're "learning" from the examples fed into them but only for the purpose of reproducing an amalgamation of examples with tagged keywords, and those keywords are very important to why things likely didn't turn out well (for the "AI"). Many of the sources used for training probably didn't have a year stamp in the way you attempted to use it, they probably had many training images with vague tags like "17th century" or "Victorian", and whether the learning algorithm actually learned what years are in each century or when certain historical periods occured is impossible to know because of the black box nature of these generative "AI" programs. They don't even know what faces are in any deeper understanding, they probably just know them as the smudgy skin coloured things above the skinny bit (neck) above the broad straighter bit (torso) above the split thinner sticks (legs) that sometimes bend in the middle (knees). Whether it even knows the nuance of portrait (as in portraiture) vs portrait (as in portrait vs landscape) is also impossible to know. While they're constantly improving, they won't grow in knowledge. They'll just figure out eventually that human fingers don't fuse together when hands are interlocked, but they'll never know how they peed in those gigantic dresses 😊

@LuxurioMusic 11 месяцев назад

Not only that, but because of how the generation is done (effectively squinting at noise and asking how to add detail to it, if I can anthropomorphise it), it will mistake similar looking things hence the "taken the waist girdle and put it up as a necklace". It associates that imagery with "1560", but can't know where it's meant to go. I think in the future image generation models will have more context for imagery and I can see the start of it happening. I'm not really a fan of AI art because of both how the training images were aquired with all the problems of not getting consent, using private medical images, not paying for usage of images, and the general state of the community which just seems to hate and mock artists in general while often stealing their work, but the technology behind it is very interesting and I hope people learn more about how these models work.

What most people don't realize is that artificial intelligence does not exist yet. No computer as yet has become self aware. What people are calling AII these days is just using a heck of a lot of computers, or computer programs, to make different results.

@cherylrosbak4092 11 месяцев назад

Yeah, the AI wasn't "trying" to do anything. It wasn't "getting at" anything. It has no will of its own.

@aurifulgore 11 месяцев назад

Yeah they're just massive algorithms (and often not very good ones at that, when you dig much deeper than surface level). But it's a new term so just saying algorithm isn't as ~fancy~

@RosesAndIvy 11 месяцев назад

Well, that’s what AI is though. I have a degree in AI and work in the field. AI doesn’t need to be conscious to be AI. The AI you see in movies and science fiction is also known as general artificial intelligence, which is AI that is good at a lot of different tasks, just like humans. The AI we have currently is not general AI, but it is AI. It’s very good at one specific task or a few different tasks, but can’t generalize this to other domains.

@ericmartinez4340 11 месяцев назад

Thanks a lot for, at least, mentioning the ethical problems of using AI art Bernadette! For those who doesn't know, tools like Midjourney uses art and images from other creators and authors without consent for generate any art piece. I wouldn't see any problem with this idea used as a tool and i see the potential and the possibilities as, for example, a composition tumbnails generator. However, any of the AI art generator is ethically unsustainable. The people surrounding this phenomena is trying to damage the careers of so many artist on purpose. Not to talk that most of them were created by people who do not believe in "giving credit to the artist". The current "database" of images programs like this use to pick parts and ideas to generate images from, are other people art that was harvested by this tools without consent. What it seems a cute or even meme-y tool is actually a great damage to artist from any kind! (however they are working on the industry or not) Currently, artist are gathering around to fight legally the abuse of this tools by reclaiming our rights of image use. Artist like Carla Ortiz and other great concept artist even brought the subject to Washington so the conditions of AI use in art is fairly regulated and used properly without scraping and scavingin from other people work to make shallow and quick to consume art. I wish more people start hearing artist and so many people that are being damaged by this before using it even to make funny or lighthearted content. I believe that AI use can be interesting and useful, but not at expense of other people hardwork and image rights.

@lindabrouwer 10 месяцев назад

and, on top of that, the thing most people don't realise. It learns, it's getting better and better based on the feedback it gets (aka the pictures people select and say 'yeah this is what i wanted'). Even if it's just for laughs. Or a meme, or a DnD portrait. There's lots of 'AI can never replace' and yet in the past months it has grown and evolved so so much, it is hard to differentiate from real art.

@ericmartinez4340 10 месяцев назад

@@lindabrouwer absolutely this!! That's why the take of "haha weird hands" or "this doesn't look good" does not hold up! AI art is improving quite a lot! And now there's good hands and art that could pass for genuine art! The whole point of the debate is not if ai art is pretty or not, the point is that it is not ethical to use and is damaging other artists! If we don't move to conversation beyond "pretty art or not" that would mean that we'll choose AI art just because aesthetics once it seems "beautiful enough" for us, leaving the damage made to the art community ignored.

@HinekoAkahi 11 месяцев назад

I think something we should pay particular attention to is the language we use around "AI" art as opposed to human art. Like, here Bernadette sometimes goes "I can see what _they_ were going for", like she does when rating historical costume dramas. This is probably just a slip of the tongue, but also... the thing is, no one was going for anything. There was no human involvement in these pictures. And I think we should be careful not to get that mixed up. Language is the first step to normalisation, after all.

So I use Google images to help with my art endeavors & I have noticed a sharp up tick of AI generated portraits clogging the search results. Sometimes they are really convincing with only the hands giving it away.

It would be really interesting to see how the AI responds to historical periods and regions where much less contemporary visual material is available, like ancient Rome, or pre-colonial Native American communities. I suspect it would really highlight how AI tends to copy the biases of its creators/source material.

These results is also a wonderful example of the bias inherent in these AI. Given the prompt "Portrait of men/women in 1xxx", the image generated are all trying to mimic an historical painting of european origin. Since a location/style isn't specified, you would think images similar to from historical japanese, chinese, etc. portraits would also show up.

@screamingbegins4688 11 месяцев назад

well i mean they measured time differently though, do u think that has any impact??

@michaelkenner3289 10 месяцев назад

@@screamingbegins4688hat's a perceptive question. The AI doesn't have any understanding of what the words in the prompt mean, so if European portraiture is more associated with gregorian calendar years and Asian artwork is more associated with other calendars or period descriptors like Meiji Restoration then you will tend to get more European from just inputting a year. However there is also inherent bias for non-technical reasons. All it cares about is "when someone asks for this keyword are they usually happy with this result". So it reproduces biases from its audience and also from the decisions of what artwork was significant enough to be included in its training set. If people are more often expecting to see European artwork and give it positive feedback when it generates it, you'll also see more European results.
