Air 2.0

Steve Rugg

Anyone using Air 2.0 seems to have a bit of AI programming and I got a message when I went to download it that it give the author unlimited access to my system? I was also curious as to the final output? I know using twilight I am limited to the amount of passes from my current machine. Mac. I have been doing renderings since 1976, as you can imagine I have a lot of renderings, thousands to be exact. Many done in black and white Rapidograph Pen and ink.I was looking for a fast way to render some those in color. Also many airbrushed in color. Just wondering if anyone thought Air would be safe to use for this. Thanks, I appreciate it. Steve

I tried it and it didn't translate the UI to english for me. Plus it seems to use some kind of coin credit system to process images.

I tried some online alternatives...

Some interesting results. I really like your original sketch. I think you could makes some interesting sketches for this thread.

Even though AI creates some neat things, I hope it does not start taking away/overriding people’s talent/ideas/skills. Don’t get me wrong, I used to be I’m technology for many years and got criticized many times for “thinking outside the box”, I think AI could be a good tool but I have some reservations about how it might be used/controlled.

Again Rich, I really like your sketch and would like to see some more of your work. I think you might also enjoy Majid’s book that inspired the thread I referenced in my link above.

It's not a sketch, it is the default StyleBuilder house with a style applied to test various AI powered generators.

Oooh, and I was trying to compliment you. Ugh!
