An Example of an AI Workflow
This is an example of an AI workflow based on a project I'm working on. I asked ChatGPT to make an image of a measuring device measuring a part. The device looked good but the part was positioned wrong even after several accurate and explicitly descriptive attempts. The part, being positioned wrong, was not in the correct position to be measured and also obstructed part of the view of the measuring device in the illustration. The illustration was photo-realistic. To correct the problem, I had to finish the job in Microsoft Paint. I had a good base that the AI model created for me but since it couldn't correct the problematic elements, I had to make the corrections myself. I had to flip part of the image and also erase parts. I then had to draw a small section in and make it look photo-realistic to blend in with the picture. It turned out good and was a bit time consuming. It took me 2 hours to do, but AI did save me time. It would have taken much longer to create a photo-realistic drawing from scratch. Probably 8 to 10 hours at least. This is just to give a practical example of what a project you are working on may look like when implementing AI. It's not a magic bullet. It has its strengths and weaknesses but can save you time. Your tasks will be done by you, doing much of the legwork, and AI will be able to assist you in certain areas. It may also enable you to do something you wouldn't normally be able to do on your own. In this example, I wouldn't be able to create a photo-realistic image from scratch but it did. I then was able to use that as a base to work off of. To create photo-realistic colors that blended in with the image, I was able to select colors from the image and airbrush them in layer by layer. It started out as looking like solid colors but as I picked different hues of the same colors and lightly airbrushed them in, the finished drawn-in section looked like a photo of something with a textured surface. The image created by AI not only gave me the object to work with, but the color pallet I could use to blend in sections that were drawn in by hand.
