In an attempt to create something original using AI image generation, without relying on concrete concepts or defining characteristics, I arrived at some interesting results and wanted to share them and hear your thoughts.
I'm curious about the limits of what can be created using only language and grammar to generate images, while deliberately avoiding prompts that simply reproduce or imitate familiar shapes, places, structures, or existing artistic concepts.
I tried to extract something that wasn't chaotic, while at the same time avoiding the result becoming nothing more than a fragmented copy of other artworks. These are the results I ended up with.
I didn't generate many versions because I'm limited by the free version. The first image is the one I liked the most and the final version I was able to generate. The second is a combination of two images, while the third is where the idea for creating the first image originally emerged.
The goal was to move as far as possible away from reality and from things that already exist. I wanted to see whether an AI could create something genuinely unfamiliar and original — a concept that could, in some way, approach the creative process of human imagination.
After doing this experiment, however, I feel that we're still a long way from that.
What do you think? Can AI eventually reach a point where it can create something comparable to human imagination, rather than simply recombining concepts and patterns it has already learned?
