AI Art Aesthetics The concept of beauty in art has been a subject of philosophical debate for centuries. The branch of philosophy that strives to understand beauty is called aesthetics. From the classical ideals of harmony and proportion in ancient Greece to the subjective interpretations of beauty in modern art, the definition of what makes something beautiful has evolved significantly. In the context of AI-generated art, this evolution continues, merging human ingenuity with advanced computational capabilities to create new forms of aesthetic expression. Historically, beauty was often associated with symmetry, balance, and the harmonious arrangement of elements. Plato viewed beauty…

This post delves into the multifaceted ethical issues related to AI art, providing a rational, balanced perspective that honors freedom of speech and encourages principled ethics. AI’s ability to generate artworks that rival or even surpass human creations in…
Intermediate Prompt-Writing Techniques Obviously, the more AI art you create, the more experienced you become. Most of this expertise is about writing better image prompts. As you transition from a beginner to an intermediate prompt engineer, it’s crucial to refine and expand your techniques to communicate more complex artistic visions to AI systems, such as Deep Dream Generator (DDG). This guide delves into intermediate strategies that build upon basic prompt-writing skills, enabling you to create more sophisticated and nuanced AI-generated artwork. Note: all the images in this post were made with DDG’s AIVision model, which is best suited for highly…
DDG Interview with AI artist Peg Fulton DDG: I am grateful that you have agreed to grant DDG an interview as one of our popular artists. This may ever have some historical significance since this is the first such interview we have ever done for our site. Could you please share a bit about your background and your life situation? And what led you to engage with AI-assisted art creation on platforms like DDG? Peg Fulton: I am a female retired IT professional. I began in IT in 1980, so I have worked everything from card readers to refrigerator IBM…
At the heart of the generative AI revolution lies “prompt engineering”—the nuanced craft of communicating with AI to bring vivid artistic visions to life. This is especially true of AI image art. By honing their prompt writing skills, artists can effectively collaborate with image AI, such as Deep Dream Generator (DDG), to produce artworks that were once confined to the realms of their imagination. In this post, we discuss the general principles and best practices of writing great image prompts. The Fundamentals of Prompt Writing Here are some general principles to keep in mind as you try to improve your…
