Earlier quoted context omitted.

For this app in particular sure. But in general I expect a massive uptick in people playing around with telling image AI's "make a modern looking table and chairs with sharp geometric designs and..." then refining the concept and taking that as an inspiration portfolio to a craftsman. I wouldn't be interested in paying a designer to just come up with ideas that I may not even like, but if I have something I know I li…

> I wouldn't be interested in paying a designer to just come up with ideas that I may not even like The benefit of having a designer is that you can have input at every stage of the process. Pick some swatches out, pick some styles, pick a budget. You aren't just throwing money into the void and getting a human designed living space. Iteration is part of the process. I'm sure AI will evolve and this will be a differe…

Just because a process is iterative doesn't mean the result will be ideal, or even satisfactory. You're limited by the capabilities of the individual designer, and you'd better believe a decent one will want payment even if you sit down for a few hours but end up not coming up with an item that really speaks to you.

If you can start the conversation with an tangible pectoral representation of what you want the end product to be, you're much better off.

Just for fun I uploaded a screenshot from Cyberpunk 2077 because I was trying out the new path tracing update. https://imgur.com/a/UpD9kHs It’s fun to see how it deals with UI elements.

the mission text -> shelf is just adorable

90% of what is generated is not doable. You cannot just add a new window like that, or change the view you have. Also the furniture that is generated doesn't exist as it is generated as well, so how are you actually supposed to buy it?

Do a reverse image search on Google and buy the closest matching piece of furniture. Doesn't have to be precisely the same

It could be a good idea to monetize the product if it offered affiliate links to matching furniture. But I think it wouldn't be that easy to do.

Cool! Just tried it out with my partner (in the process of designing their living room in a new place). UX suggestion: let me select a new style without having to re-upload the photo. We wanted to check out a bunch of styles on the same photo, but doing so took 10 clicks instead of just 1!

Thank you for the feedback! will implement this feature for sure

Please do. It's really tedious to use iteratively at present.
