With all the criticism over Gears of War E-Day and all that stuff, I have to admit that they really improved the graphic quality and photorealism over the last games. I can’t say that it looks like sh*t because it’s simply not true, there are some really beautiful landscapes of the city at some times

there's a reason top creators still choose midjourney when there are supposedly better models available... and it has nothing to do with technical specifications or benchmark scores what matters at the end of the day is this one question: can you take what exists in your imagination and translate it into something real that matches your vision? midjourney does something that's pretty rare in the AI space right now... it captures the vibe you're going for, not just the literal description not just technical accuracy or photorealism, but the feeling and aesthetic you had in mind when you started when studio-quality content becomes free and accessible to literally everyone, taste is the only thing that separates you > anyone can generate images now, that's a solved problem > but not everyone can imagine something that's worth generating > and even fewer people can look at results and recognize when they've nailed it the time you invest in developing your creative vision and aesthetic sense will separate you from 99% of people using these tools this is genuinely one of the top skill worth building right now

For the last few days I have been researching 3D scanning + photogrammetry a lot. The deeper into the tech I go, the more I realize it could very well be one of the ways to approach my art. These are fantastic tools to capture the world as it is at the current moment, and I can use the photorealism in combination with 3D compositing to build scenes that live on the border between physical and digital, and build more dreamscapes rooted in tangible reality. Its fun

Meet Boogu-Image-0.1 from @BooguTeam , an open-source unified image generation and editing model series from Boogu team. Apache 2.0. 🚀 🤖 🖼️ Photorealistic generation with natural lighting and consistent spatial relationships 📝 Bilingual text rendering (Chinese/English) across posters, UI, brand guidelines, handwriting boards 🎨 Stylized generation: miniature 3D scenes, anime portraits, fantasy visuals, mythological art ✏️ Fine-grained text editing: replace, add, or delete characters with font/color/layout control Research preview. Trained on roughly 10x less data than comparable closed-source systems. Three variants: • Base (dense text rendering, posters, documents) • Turbo (fast generation + photorealism) • Edit (object insertion, replacement, removal, style transfer)

Live on OpenRouter: @recraftai V4.1! Six new image generation models: V4.1 and V4.1 Pro for high aesthetics, V4.1 Vector and V4.1 Pro Vector for SVG illustration, and V4.1 Utility and V4.1 Utility Pro for restraint-first product imagery. Photorealism is more natural, gradients are smoother, and short prompts hit the mark with less hand-holding.

Create an ultra-realistic 10-second cinematic video inside a large, busy Pakistani car modification workshop. The workshop is filled with powerful modified cars, including a Toyota Supra, a Nissan GT-R, and a Pakistani Suzuki Mehran. Mechanics are working on high-performance engine swaps, installing a V8 engine, a 2JZ engine, and a turbocharged setup. One mechanic is carefully fitting a large turbocharger while another is tightening engine bolts. Premium aftermarket rims, wide tires, aggressive body kits, and large polished exhaust tips are visible on the cars. In the foreground, a young Pakistani man stands beside his modified car, looking stressed and worried as he watches the mechanics repair his engine. He wears realistic casual clothes and has a serious expression. Mechanics are actively working with real tools, engine hoists, and automotive equipment. Show detailed engine components, metal textures, grease-stained hands, and natural workshop lighting. Camera slowly moves through the workshop, capturing the Supra and GT-R, the engine swap in progress, the turbo installation, and finally the worried owner standing beside his car. Authentic Pakistani workshop atmosphere, realistic vehicle proportions, natural human movements, cinematic depth of field, handheld camera feel, 4K photorealism, accurate mechanical details, no CGI appearance, no cartoon effects, no text, no watermark. Duration: exactly 10 seconds.
