Evolving AI Art
Chapters
In this video, I explain how #aiart generators like #midjourney and #stablediffusion can be used to simulate evolutionary processes, and explain why this is important and valuable as an exploration algorithm. I also show very good pictures of orangutans, which is perhaps the most important part of the video. Please comment "orangutan good" if you read this, it is a sign of unwavering loyalty.
