Original survey link: https://forms.gle/7Bu3Tyi5fufmY8Vc8
Thanks for all the answers, here are the results for the survey in case you were wondering how you did!
Edit: People working in CS or a related field have a 9.59 avg score while the people that aren’t have a 9.61 avg.
People that have used AI image generators before got a 9.70 avg, while people that haven’t have a 9.39 avg score.
Edit 2: The data has slightly changed! Over 1,000 people have submitted results since posting this image, check the dataset to see live results. Be aware that many people saw the image and comments before submitting, so they’ve gotten spoiled on some results, which may be leading to a higher average recently: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MkuZG2MiGj-77PGkuCAM3Btb1_Lb4TFEx8tTZKiOoYI
It depends on if these were hand picked as the most convincing. If they were, this can’t be used a representative sample.
But you will always hand pick generated images. It’s not like you hit the generate button once and call it a day, you hit it dozens of times tweaking it until you get what you want. This is a perfectly representative sample.
As a personal example, this is what I generated and after like few hours of tweaking, regenerating and inpainting, this was the final result. And here’s another: initial generation, the progress animation, and end result.
Are they perfect, no, but the really obvious bad AI art comes from people who expect it to spit perfect images at you.
