Artificial Intelligence (AI) is empowering people to be artists, photographers, illustrators, and architectural designers in a single click. Anyone can create art, photography-style images, illustrations, and building designs using text-to-image generators, such as DALL.E 2, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion.
Now, people can also be interior designers with InteriorAI and Image.computer platforms similar to DALL.E 2, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion.
