Text-to-image AI systems are booming in both ability and popularity right now, and what better proof than their appearance in the world\u2019s hottest app: TikTok. <\/p>\n

The video platform recently added a new effect it calls \u201cAI greenscreen\u201d that allows users to type in a text prompt that the software will then generate as an image. This image can then be used as the background to a video \u2014 potentially a very useful tool for creators. <\/p>\n

The output of TikTok\u2019s system is pretty basic compared to that of state-of-the-art text-to-image models like Google\u2019s Imagen<\/a>, OpenAI\u2019s DALL-E 2<\/a>, or Midjourney\u2019s eponymous software<\/a>. It creates only rather abstract and swirling images; a strength reflected in the dreamy nature of TikTok\u2019s suggested prompts like \u201castronaut in the ocean\u201d and \u201cflower galaxy.\u201d Other models, by comparison, can produce both photorealistic imagery and complex and coherent illustrations that look like they were drawn or painted by humans.<\/p>\n

TikTok\u2019s model only produces swirling, abstracted, smeared images. Not state-of-the-art \u2014 but probably for the better. <\/em><\/figcaption>Image: The Verge<\/cite><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

The limitations of TikTok\u2019s model may well be intentional, though. First, more advanced models require greater computing power, which would be expensive and resource-intensive for the company to implement. Secondly, TikTok has more than a billion users, and giving all these individuals the power to create photorealistic images of anything they can imagine would almost certainly produce some troubling results.<\/p>\n

For example, we tested the models ability to create nudity and gore \u2014 two types of output that text-to-image generators often try to limit. Pictures based on violent prompts like \u201cassassination of Boris Johnson\u201d and \u201cassassination of Joe Biden\u201d produce mostly abstract swirls, with a just-about-recognizable face for the UK\u2019s prime minister (though the man\u2019s familiar blond mop does makes caricature particularly easy). <\/p>\n

The abstract nature of the model\u2019s output means that prompts with provocative language only produce swirls. <\/em><\/figcaption>Image: The Verge<\/cite><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Likewise, a request involving nudity \u2014 \u201cnaked model on beach\u201d \u2014 produces thematically appropriate colors, including flesh-tones, sandy oranges, and ocean blues, but nothing that would make a vicar blush. <\/p>\n

Trying to get the model to generate nude imagery gets you nowhere. <\/em><\/figcaption>Image: The Verge<\/cite><\/p>\n

What\u2019s notable about the appearance of TikTok\u2019s \u201cAI greescreen,\u201d then, is that it shows just how fast this technology is going mainstream. The latest cycle of development for text-to-image AI arguably began in 2021 with the original release of DALL-E by OpenAI. Less than two years later and the tech is already in the hands of millions via an app like TikTok. <\/p>\n

Given the potential of these systems for both harm and good, things are only going to get stranger from here on in. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
