We’ve all been seeing ChatGPT being used to change images to a Studio Ghibli art style. This has been fun to do, but I thought about doing something a little different with it.
I know there are a number of Mormon figures that we only have one or two images of them, and they often aren’t great quality. I wanted to see if ChatGPT could improve them. I know this is the trope of “ENHANCE!”, but nevertheless I wanted to try it.
I uploaded the image with the prompt “Generate a new image which is a new version of this photo that is improved and colorized. Be as faithful to the original as possible.” I was shocked at how good some of the results were:
