The John Constable Artificial Intelligence Misdemeanour

More Stable Diffusion Artificial Intelligence reprehensible behaviour I’m afraid. This time I am mixing the style of British artist John Constable (1776-1837) with motorbike (motorcycle!) text inputs. Totally outrageous! The output from Stable Diffusion is interestingly different but it’ll almost certainly be an affront to art lovers everywhere. Of course, no motorbikes existed in the 1700/1800s. Constable together with Klimt and Bruegel (see my earlier posts here and here) will be spinning in his grave. Sorry John!

The Pieter Bruegel the Elder Motorcycles

Now, Pieter Bruegel died in 1569 and, as far as I am aware, motorcycles had not been invented by then. So, I asked the Artificial Intelligence engine, Stable Diffusion, to imagine what Pieter Bruegel might have painted had he known that motorcycles would be invented in 1885. And so, here below is the Artificial Intelligence generated Bruegel painting (not really) including what Bruegel (spinning in his grave) might have imagined. Here they are:

The Flagrant and Undeniable Abuse of Artificial Intelligence.

My apologies to art lovers everywhere. I thought it would be fun to ask the Artificial Intelligence image creating engine, Stable Diffusion, to create images in the style of the artist Pieter Bruegel the Elder but also based on my text inputs: i.e: ‘Angry Lady’ or. ‘Large Man’ and see what the AI engine spat out. The results (below) will, I’m sure, have Mr Bruegel spinning in his grave (but oh, what good fun).
