A Little Fun with the various free AI engines

Today I decided I wanted a caricature of my car. Played around with GPT Chat, Gemini, and even CoPilot to see what I would get. Most were cool, but not really my car came out. After about 15 to 20 different request, I finally got something close to what I was wanting. Here is the final two tries. Not too far off, just a few nit picky issues left to fix, but oh well. These were a second visit to Gemini by hitting AI mode on the Google site. Took about 7 retries to get these.


Only two tail lights on each side... The one before had 3 on each side.

Front view looks pretty close. So I quit.

Here are a few of the others that came out of the process...

I think this was the third attempt on GPT-Chat...  Not too bad, then asked it to remove the human items, eyes, teeth, and mouth...

almost, but see those eyes in the headlights.

Not really my Roush, wrong wheel, and no foglights, close.  But looks like a 4x4.

Car looks pretty good, but not really a caricature version.  Ask to create the bubble gum car trading cards of the 70s.  Not exactly what I had in mind, but actually a pretty good image.  This was with Co-Pilot.

Well submitted a photo of mine and this is what I got.  Not sure why it gave me a GT500 with 30

Another Gemini.  Loves the huge wheel, but did not really try to do a caricature of the car...  Just huge wheels.
Another Gemini rendering... Mustang GT/Boss/v6 mashup image. Loves the huge wheels, but it did not really try to do a caricature of the car... Just huge wheels.


This one it only made it a cartoon.  Be careful what you ask for.  Not sure what my statement was here.  I think this was Co-Pilot.

I did get some real quirking things happening while trying to change the car caricature. Instead of fixing the generated image, it would take my car photo I was providing as an example of the corrections and then applying the incorrect items (What I was asking to remove) on the caricature and then it applied them to the example photo. Here is the original example photo. I asked for it to fix the exhaust, quarter windows, and rear spoiler. It got a little confused.

Change 1...  See spoiler, quarter window louvers, and exhaust.

So I decided to give the caricature another try tonight. I had the best luck using Google's Gemini with the Namo Banana image AI. I submitted this two images and after some refinements got back these great looking images.

Original from the rear.



Original from the Front


New Caricature images. Much better. I think it learned from the other day. Was much easier getting something I liked and was much more accurate from the car image. Not sure why it added a license plate on the front view, but oh well.

Here is A Pic Of My Then New Shelby and A Good Friends Shelby GT. He Has Since Passed! I Would Not Mind a Cartoon Type Pic If You are Feeling Generous!

Thanks,

KC

Looks Great!

I Suppose Jack's Shelby Gt instead of Friends. And I Wish I Had Those Wheels on My Car! Leave Em On Though!

Thank You!

Just Like The old CARTOONS Magazine!

KC

Fixed it…


Then took it a bit further… Did not ask for a driver, I can have it take him out if you want, or make just about any other change that bugs you.

Sorry @05stangkc KC, just realized the wheels were changed by the AI on Jack;s Car. This was not on purpose. I only asked for the AI engine to update the wording of the banner. After a handful of tries I was able to get your actual wheels on your car as well.



to update the banner. Here is a second try.
