Art and visual design

Choose a direction by rating examples.

  1. Compare designs
  2. Rate the options
  3. Suggest a variation
Illustration of the proposed workflow.

A designer could choose between poster, logo or portrait variations instead of repeatedly describing a style. The original site also proposed digital-art and NFT collections; the useful task is choosing the artwork, regardless of how it is distributed.

Where the small model fits

With a compatible generator, each rated image has known internal inputs. A small scorer learns from those inputs, then selects or adjusts them before rendering the next image. Ranking already-made images is another option, with a different rendering cost.

What would need to work

Ask people to choose between unseen designs without seeing the predicted scores. Measure preference, variety and edit quality, not just how highly the classifier rates its own suggestions.
