This is real nice. I wonder how long it is before some hapless curator is hooked into praising one of these like they have done with art by babies and elephants and the like :D
I think some of them would deserve the praise, human or not, especially the themed ones which have been fed some aesthetic fodder (which still comes from humans).
But interesting aside, I read this in my book today, which speaks to this effect:
Quote Posted by Glimcher, Neuroeconomics (2014)
In the visual aesthetic domain, Skov and colleagues showed that activity in the mOFC [medial Orbito-Frontal Cortex, which registeres how "valuable" a thing is] in response to viewing artworks depended on beliefs about whether the painting was taken from an exhibition in a museum or was created by the experimenter on his computer (Kirk et al., 2009). Together, these findings suggest that the outcome valuation system is modulated by higher cognitive processes that shape expectancies and beliefs about the quality of the outcome, even if the sensory input is kept constant.
I guess while I'm posting, let's see what Psychic has to say about mOFC.
Looking at the result ... it looks like a
Disco Elysium Skill-avatar.
Well at least now we can see who we're talking about that's performing this magic. XD

I've noticed that when it comes to concrete things it grasps the idea very well, such as telephone pole, but when it comes to dancer it doesn't quite get the concept. Also it will be on it's way to creating something beautiful and then turn it grotesque at the last moment. It's as if it understands the idea of beauty but does not prefer it. And that's literally nine out of ten times. You want Brain Bouquet? No problem. You want Stardust Woman? Get ready for a puked up half digested by an alien woman. It took me twenty tries to get any femininity into moon woman which was a shame because it understood and gave me some beautiful moons I had to discard. Look at mOFC. It looks more like rectal eye exam. But to get something more in line with the concept you would have had to type in brain electricity. The more simple the better it understands.
Be that as it may, it does cough up some things I would like to improve on and I do like so many of these better than museum pieces. No the last word was not head but helm.

I also input dirty sexual stuff in there, and it generates a lot of vaguely humanoid bodies & body parts; it still looks lascivious regardless :p

Sometimes you have to be specific to get a better result but if you add too many specifics you get away from the overall image you were going for. Adding breast helped Star Woman.
