AI Recreates Animals From Their Dictionary Descriptions Let’s have some fun with AI

*created by HungryMinded using MidjourneyAI* In the old days before the internet and even before photography the only way to know what a certain animal looked like was by looking at drawings of these animals. And some of the artists had never even seen the animals themselves. The only way to draw them was by interpreting written descriptions. Essentially text-prompts.

Unsurprisingly some of these drawings looked nothing like the animals they were supposed to depict. But back in the day, it was the only way to visualize these far-away creatures.

Here’s an article that goes more into depth on this phenomenon https://www.boredpanda.com/medieval-animal-paintings-that-dont-look-real-daniel-holland/?utm_source=presearch&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=organic The Experiment For this experiment, I will be using Midjourney AI (At the end of the article I will include a link to a tutorial if you want to try this yourself) to create images from text descriptions. And for the descriptions I am using the Macmillian dictionary. I excluded every mention of the animal names from the descriptions. Let’s get to the point: 1. A Cat An animal with soft fur, a long thin tail, and whiskers, that people keep as a pet or for catching mice.
