Artificial Intelligence is very common nowadays. The world is using AI in every possible space. There are two sides of opinions there, that are debatable. AI is one of the reasons for the increasing number of jobless people and also increasing the possibility to do a lot of tasks in the least time. In this competitive world, AI Prompting is considered a highly skilled high-income job.

So, today we can use an AI-based ultra-realistic image generation platform for completely free. This is my first article about an AI-based project. We can use more websites like this in the future.

Leonardo AI is the emerging artificial intelligence conceptual artistic platform to generate ultra-realistic artistic images, game assets, textures, etc. The platform is one of the free alternatives of the Midjourney, the AI image generation platform working through Discord.

Leonardo AI is now running on the alpha stage, allowing us to use their platform. The platform is not completely free, you can use it with limited tools in a free plan.

In the next dialogue box, you can choose your username and start using the website. Here, we didn’t do anything complex steps today. Trying to generate an image and do simple things on it.

After you reach the main workspace; click on the “Learn AI Image Generation” button.

Please note that the prompt must be clear and precise for the best result. Also, you can adjust the prompt strength by adjusting the ‘Prompt Magic Strength’ button. You can also use the Prompt Magic Version 2 along with a lot of input information.

Here, we tried to create an image of a typical chocolate-skinned Indian Malayali girl. But, we didn’t mention the skin shade. We just allowed the website to its decision :)…

We put the prompt for the image generation which is available below. But, the algorithm didn’t detect the forefinger thing that I mentioned in the prompt.

Anyway, I got the results which are good compared to the generation of other artificial intelligence-based algorithms I think. Almost 30 seconds later we got four images of results, previously selected it’s numbers.

First two generated images of a total of four images.

The four images are very smooth and convincing. The website gave four results to me that are in different age ranges of women with a slight age gap. Which is very appealing to me without prompting the age.

Then I decided to do an ‘HD crisp upscale’ option with the third image result which upscales the image in HD format.

I got a fantastic HD upscaled image which doubled the resolution and quality. The image has more details, precision, color saturation, etc. than the previous image.

You can check out the differences here.

This is my first try at writing the article. Please, share your feedback and also you can watch my video for the tutorial.
