AI image enlargement, don’t be too outrageous!

2023 can be said to usher in an era of explosion in the application of AI technology.

So far, in application layer financing, AI digital agents have received the most financing, followed by text, image, code and audio generation tools, which are the familiar AI writing, AI image expansion, AI photo, and AI code etc...

There is no doubt that artificial intelligence tools have indeed brought great convenience to our lives, but sometimes the functions are not perfect and they appear to be slightly less intelligent

Yes, what Fox Girl is referring to is today’s protagonist: AI image expansion!

As early as the end of May this year, Adobe Photoshop beta version launched an AI image synthesis tool called "Generative Fill". To put it bluntly, it is an intelligent image expansion function.

This function uses the "Adobe Firefly" image synthesis model, which expands and extends the images we give by learning Adobe's material pictures. In addition, we can also give it some text prompts to generate our imaginary scenes

The gears of fate of AI image expansion have begun to turn, so far...

As for why I say this, because... starting from this function, a large number of innocent emoticons, movies, and classic scenes of film and television began to be brutally murdered. The scenes after being spoofed by AI are simply unbearable to watch.

Take this picture, which has been uploaded quickly, for example. The reasonable setting, props, and matching colors make people feel that the original scene should be like this.

It's just that...who would have thought that AI seems to be regardless of gender and directly arranges red high-heeled shoes and fashionable "socks and high-heeled shoes" for the old man with a white beard.

To use an inappropriate metaphor, the result is even more O. Henry-esque than the O. Henry-esque endings we were exposed to in previous high school articles.

Every time I hear Tanya Chua singing "Just be the last and only pair of ~red high heels~", the fox girl wants to say: He wears them on his feet! Just let him wear it!

In July this year, Midjourney updated the "Pan and Expand" function, which allows the image to be freely panned back and forth. Compared with the previously launched "Zoom Out" function, which only had a fixed "Expand 1.5" times" or "expand the image 2 times" to appear more humane.

However, for some people in non-related industries, highly professional software like Photoshop and Midjourney are difficult to access

In addition The AI ​​image expansion function has a certain threshold for use and is not very versatile. Therefore, it is only popular in a small number of circles and has not reached the level of universal mastery.

It wasn’t until July 11th that our national-level P-picture tool Meitu Xiuxiu announced the official launch of the “AI picture enlargement function”, and now AI picture enlargement has entered the lives of non-technical people like us.

The "civilian version" AI image expansion function is launched on the APP, which is very convenient for ordinary people, easy to use, has a low threshold, and is suitable for everyone to use

Initially, the first netizens to use the "AI image enlargement" function only seriously shared usage tutorials

Some netizens also shared their beautiful photos after using AI to enlarge the pictures. The background proportions were perfectly restored and the atmosphere was very strong. People can’t help but sigh at the power of beautiful pictures.

However, as more and more people use AI to enlarge images, different voices gradually emerge in discussions about this image enlarging technology on the Internet.

Especially recently, the topic "Don't go too far with AI image enlargement" has become popular all over the Internet, and the topic of #AI image enlargement has also remained high.

On Xiaohongshu, the #AI image expansion topic has 21.284 million views, while the same topic on Douyin also has 2.227 million views

MeituXiuXiu AI image expansion topic data is gratifying, this is good news!

The bad news is that the complaint function under the topic is very excessive!

Why does AI image enlargement cause such controversy that its reputation has been reversed and it has been subject to nationwide cyberattacks?

Browse through the experiences of netizens below and you will understand why

A netizen posted a selfie of half his face, intending to let AI enlarge the picture to help extend it, but the result he got was this... Rewritten content: Someone posted a selfie of half his face online and planned to use artificial intelligence to enlarge the size of the photo, but the final result was like this...

To be honest, this is the first time in my life that I see the coexistence of two dimensions and three dimensions on a person’s face.

Hot comment in the comment area: Looks like Mrs. Egghead

The picture shows Mrs. Egghead

The couple's selfie pictures really give them the feeling of cross-dressing wedding photos. The white old man's shirt turned into a white skirt, and his hands that were close together seemed to tell us:

There is a drama going on between them: "You obviously don't like holding hands, so why do you take the initiative to hook your hands?"

This wedding photo is really beautiful, showing a kind of beauty that doesn’t care about the man’s objection

After many expansions, the style of the picture began to become abnormal, even a little outrageous

When Fox Girl saw this, she couldn't help but feel worried. If the plot continues to expand, I'm afraid the protagonist will start to travel through time

AI enlargement single-handedly transformed a serious hair-washing photo into a weird photo of him, with an unfamiliar face, a head suspended in the water...well, it smells like a horror movie.

It may be that the intelligent recognition has detected that the content of the picture is not rich enough. When expanding the picture, it will "enthusiastically" help you fill in some things that suit the situation. There is nothing else, the main thing is to make something out of nothing.

But this kind of expanded map that does not differentiate between species is not enough to say that it is off the spectrum. It is simply off the original spectrum. Is there any?

Rewrite the content as follows: No need to change the original meaning, the content needs to be rewritten into Chinese. Picture source: @茶茶 Pill

Let’s go back to the picture that was originally corrupted by Generative Fill and see what kind of effect it will have in Meitu XiuXiu’s AI picture expansion

Emmmmm... As expected, you won’t be disappointed if you don’t have expectations.

This time the behavior of the two people is finally not so close, but can anyone explain to me whether the two more incomplete people behind the next one are people?

Sometimes, it is difficult for people to imagine the mental state of artificial intelligence expansion. You will never know what is waiting for you when the progress bar is full

As the richness of application scenarios increases, the image expansion function also puts forward higher requirements for computing power. But obviously, the APP version of AI image expansion has not passed the test.

So, there is indeed a knowledge blind spot in some human architecture and natural scenery, just like generative artificial intelligence. If there is not enough material, it will start to make up random things

But having said that, In terms of the expansion and restoration of human bodies and scenes, the performance of Meitu Xiuxiu’s AI image expansion function is quite remarkable.

But it doesn’t matter if it’s good or not, as long as I don’t use it, it will always be others who are laughed at.
