    So much negativity as usual and so little talk about the product, this is pretty impressive, well done, it seems to be filling decently a gap that everyone that has worked enough generating images with AI has faced.

      there basically isn't any authentic use for image generation, i would hardly say the negativity is unfounded

        yes, just like emails and chats are inauthentic compared to perfumed letters written in cursive and delivered by a courier on a horse. they are a bit more convenient and affordable for most of us, though.

        > authentic use

        If you do not consider contemplation, for which we have filled our homes with works of art for centuries,

        and if you do not consider those job that involve graphics production e.g. in the Madison Avenue "Mad Men" business (advertising - the payments are authentic),

        you could consider "authentic" that when we do video production through generative models some start from stills (image generation) and then have other models animate those stills.

      By "this is pretty impressive", do you mean you tried using it? Or do you mean the landing page seems impressive?
