***UPDATE***

This chapter was written before Photoshop Beta’s Generative Fill was introduced to the world. The concept is quite the same only that in this tutorial I am using Dall-E instead of Photoshop!

Photoshop?

In this chapter, we will uncover a hidden gem of digital art creation - using DALL-E 2 instead of traditional software like Photoshop.

We will show you how to harness the power of DALL-E 2's advanced AI technology not to create images, but rather edit your images.

This trick will save you time and give you new creative possibilities that would otherwise be a tiresome process in a traditional graphic design software

Let’s put it to the test:

Today I was working on a “Tiny Animals” series:

Pretty cute right?

Well yeah, except those terrifying hands!

A problem we are all very much used to by now. But here’s where DALL-E comes in handy! (No pun intended)

First we’ll upload our image to DALL-E:

Now we can simply inpaint the faulty hands:

And as easy as that:

Does it look like Midjourney V4 quality hands? No.

Does it look like hands? Yes!

Fixing your AI images with DALL-E helps your AI creations look more professional.

It's a multi-purpose technique, not just a one-trick pony for fixing hands!

For example here I was trying to make an image of a duck shooting a gun: (Don’t ask me why)

I did get some kind of a duck like creature, but it looks more like an emoji face than a duck.

I then took this image to DALL-E, inpainted the face and…

Here we go! That’s a nice looking duck.

Unforutnately I don’t have a version of this image without my watermark.

I could wave my magical DALL-E wand and make it disappear though ;)

Get the idea?

Great! Now go fix some hands.
