My inspiration for creating a futuristic world with breathtaking characters stems from the history of King Mansa Musa of Mali, the richest man to ever live on planet earth.
The setting and era is in the heart of a reimagined 16th century West Africa, the legacy of Mansa Musa’s opulence lives on, but with a twist that artfully blends the rich history of the region with a visionary future of human-AI interaction.
From agriculture to education, everything thrived during his reign as he sponsored education, the Timbuktu Library and mosques. His generosity placed Mali on the world map and till today, Mali is renown for her gold and Artisans.
The theme I stuck with is photo-realism. I wanted to come up with ultra-realistic high resolution images, shot using High Dynamic Range (HDR). I prompted my GPT to make these characters exude confidence and poise. I emphasized to the GPT to pay extra attention to the futuristic and technological advancements in this society. I also made sure the GPT recognize that in this world, the occupants had glowing dark skin.
I discovered that you have to be particularly specific with the GPT so as to achieve your desired results. Overall, this experience was a fun one and I intend to interact with my GPT so as to explore the countless possibilities with AI and hyper-realistic image creation.
