And at the same time ... only variation of conformism ?

Stable Diffusion opens a lot a avenues and yet it is somewhat "restricted" to what it "knows/understands". Put differently, if cars it exposed to is black can it paint them pink ? What about even higher level construct ? It can not innovate can it ? Not yet ?

Anyways, fascinating.

If you go to 95% of architects or interior designers, they will give you designs that are largely representative of current trends, which is incidentally what most people want.

Very few people in creative industries are truly pushing that industry into new frontiers, and that is actually appropriate. Exploring outside the frontier is actually full of failure, and far less likely to produce something most people want.

I honestly think that people operating outside of the frontier of established creative trends technically have a completely different set of skills, and a completely different job altogether, than people who create within the boundaries.

For this particular case I’d want it to be even less creative. I want it to be able to make designs that just use cabinets that are available to buy, and it should know where to source them and what they cost.

And only show me lights that really exist and are for sale, etc.

You are probably not going to get Stable Diffusion to spit out a picture of a car by feeding it pictures of horses.

However, we should not neglect small incremental innovation that is created by combining previously known knowledge in new ways.
