Artificial intelligence impresses people with its special abilities. Now a gamer has shown how an AI can turn a Minecraft world into art. You can replicate this, but the path there is not entirely simple.
Artificial intelligence offers a lot of potential for various areas of society. Some even see AIs like Midjourney as the impending death of art and are already expecting the worst.
A gamer has now shown a new way of AI and art. Because he shows how to transform a Minecraft world into a work of art. It also involves the capabilities of an artificial intelligence.
AI easily transforms buildings and structures from Minecraft into works of art
Which AI is being used? He uses InokeAI. This is the command-line version of “Stable Diffusion AI image generator”, which you can try online yourself.
On reddit, you can watch a short video featuring several creations:
In a short post, he explains how he proceeded:
- He has a script that captures the open window of the game with Minecraft, reduces it to 512×512, and then saves it in a folder.
- Additionally, he has set the AI to always take the last image from the folder and output it as an edited version.
- Moreover, he relies on a self-built code. This regenerates each image at a fixed interval or whenever the player places/removes a block. It uses some standard system libraries for screen capturing.
Can you replicate this? In principle, you can rebuild the gamer’s project. So far, user Lozmosis on reddit has not published the self-written scripts on Github or any other site. Either you have to wait until then or write the script yourself.
What do you think about it? Do you find the idea cool or rather absurd, why one should create such a work of art from a Minecraft world or a building? Tell us in the comments and discuss with other readers about it!
The AI that many artists fear is impressing our editor-in-chief Leya Jankowski. In her opinion on MeinMMO, she explains to you why she is so excited about the possibilities:
