In the realm of artificial intelligence, the ability to generate images from text prompts has become increasingly sophisticated. This technology, known as generative AI, holds immense potential for creative expression and artistic exploration. However, as we delve deeper into the capabilities of these models, we encounter intriguing limitations. One such limitation is the ability to capture the desired aesthetic, particularly when it comes to poses and dramatic style. This blog post examines the performance of a generative AI model in creating images based on text prompts that emphasize poses and aesthetics. We analyze the model’s strengths and weaknesses, highlighting its ability to accurately capture camera position and scene composition while struggling to convey the intended artistic nuance.

Conclusion
The results show that the generative AI model performed well in terms of camera position and shot analysis, but struggled with aesthetic analysis. Here’s a breakdown:
- Camera Position: The model scored 0.5, which falls within the “good” range (0.5 to 0.75). This indicates that the model was able to accurately capture the camera position described in the prompt.
- Shot Analysis: The model scored 0.41, also within the “good” range. This suggests that the model understood the scene described in the prompt and was able to create an image that reflected that understanding.
- Aesthetic Analysis: The model scored 0.07, which is significantly lower than the “very good” range (-0.2 to 0.1). This indicates that the generated image did not match the expected aesthetic as closely as it did with the camera position and shot analysis.
Overall, the model demonstrates a good understanding of camera position and scene composition, but needs improvement in capturing the desired aesthetic.
