Show HN: Comics Written and Drawn by AI

4 points| infomiho | 2 years ago

Hey, I made a website which outputs daily comics written and drawn by a machine. https://dailyaicomics.com

I know it's fun to ask ChatGPT for a joke about X, but I wanted to take a step further by asking it for:

1. a comic in three parts 2. to include lines and a title 3. prompts to draw it

I'm asking ChatGPT to output JSON with the comic and then I parse it and move it to the next step of the pipeline (drawing). Tools on their own are cool, but chaining them is the true multiplier of creativity.

Check the source on Github: https://github.com/infomiho/dailyaicomics

The hardest thing so far was figuring out how to get a bit more consistent style since each panel is draw in isolation. I've tried asking "draw in the style of X famous comic writer" but that had two drawbacks: - their style varies (color, black and white) - since it's a comic author, it oftentimes draws a whole comic (multiple panels)

Now I'm being very explicit around the style (ink, pastel colors etc.) and it's okay.

I'm wondering what's the best approach to get consistency?
