From sketch to “reality” with ChatGPT

Written By gene lu

Sketching for me has been a very quick and easy way to express ideas. It forces me to convey key info without getting lost in the weeds, but what if we paired it with ChatGPT's image generator? I spent the a couple of days feeding the machine sketches from past projects and here's what it cranked out without any 'photoshopping' on my end.

TL;DR

  • UI sketches don't translate all too well via AI (yet)

  • ChatGPT does a decent job at matching the composition of the sketches (this is definitely easier for me bc I'm too lazy to type out words)

  • Maybe GPT can 'debug' your work based on how it interprets your sketch, i.e. if your sketch comes out completely wrong after running it thru the image generator, maybe it's time to go back to the drawing board?
