It was ONLY a year ago (August 18, 2022) that I got access to DALL-E -- and since then AI ART has really exploded! Now a year later AI (Artificial Intelligence) is not only generating images -- BUT also 3D objects, animations and videos as well.
In fact, today (August 27th) I generated a whole AI VIDEO from a simple text prompt using invideoAI:
AI ART Programs
building up in previous years
2017
Not AI Generated:
I started by just wanting to add color to my drawings:
Colored with regular Photoshop Elements
So I imagined that there must be a program online that colors your drawings automatically. That's when I found Paintschainer -- now PETALICA PAINT -- to color my figure drawings in November 2017.

- "Text-to-Dream" came later, in September 29, 2022

2020
NVIDIA PLAYGROUND had a lot of AI programs online for anyone to try, such as GauGAN and Inpainting (which are no longer available):
- Nvidia Omniverse
- Currently one can download GeForce Experience from Nvidia in 2023
ARTBREEDER is an AI program best used for blending faces, but will also generate landscapes
- This used to be "GanBreeder," which I have bookmarked since 2019
I created "AI models" based on my drawings in RUNWAY ML, beginning in August, 2020:
- Magic Tools for video came out in February 2023
- On March 27, 2023, Runway ML released their GEN 1 video maker Runway ML released GEN-2 in June 2023
HOLLY GRIMM curated an AI ART exhibition -- AIKPHRASIS -- in October, 2020 (that even went to Sweden in 2022):
MONSTER MASH is a simple online program for creating 3D from 2D, and animating the 3D file:

EBSynth is a free program that one can download to apply an artistic style to a video:

The AI ART Explosion
started in AUGUST 2022
I got access to DALL-E on August 18, 2022:
- On August 31, 2022 DALL-E added "Outcropping"
I bought credits on Midjourney by August 28, 2022:
- On November 5, 2022 Midjourney upgraded to version 4
- On March 16, 2023 Midjourney upgraded to version 5
- On June 22, 2023 Midjourney came out with a 5.2 upgrade, allowing "Zoom Out"
- About August 21, 2023 Midjourney came out with "inpainting" with version 5.3
By September 3rd, 2022 I was using Stable Diffusion/DreamStudio Lite, and ate up all my free credits quickly:
- Stable Diffusion 2 came out around November 26, 2022
AI Search Engine
In September 2022 I found LEXICA, which is a search engine for AI Art, and later allowed one to generate AI Art:
ARTBREEDER COLLAGE came to my attention in September 2022:

PALETTE FM is an AI program that changes color (a little more sophisticated than Petalica Paint); I was using this by November 2022:
CHIMERA PAINTER is a simple online AI program from Google that allows one to make different animals by putting together pieces, sorta like an online Mr. Potato Head:
PHOTOBOOTH allows one to train their own AI model, and OPEN ART allows one to do that online, and I made my own model in December 2022:
POINT-E came out in December 2022, with a demo that allowed people to generate 3D objects from 2D images. The demo no longer works as better programs have come out since:
2023
I got free access to LEONARDO AI in February 2023. This program surfaced as the rival to Midjourney, and allows users to make their own AI models:
I subscribed to the Pro version of Mage Space about February 27, 2023, which is NSFW:
- On March 23, Mage Space added Text-to-animated-GIF
SCRIBBLE DIFFUSION allows one to draw something crude and then it generates something more sophisticated from that (I made a print starting this way):
While Segment Anything is somewhat restricted, and cannot be used for commercial reasons, this software is extremely useful in breaking down my drawings into shapes and pieces:
SHAP-E came out on May 12, 2023, and was an improvement over the previous 2D to 3D programs:
About May 23, 2023 I got access to LATENT LABS, a program on Discord for making 3D objects from 3D files:
I tried the new PHOTOSHOP FIREFLY AI program at Quelab in June 2023. Since I am not paying for it, I don't have much access to it:

I got immediate access to CSM on August 3, 2023. Their servers were so overloaded then that it took days to generate a 3D object from a 2D file. But it took less than an hour when I tried it again on August 24, 2023:
Grant lent Quelab a supercomputer on August 2, 2023, and a week later Adam had installed Automatic 1111 on it. Generating AI images is a lot quicker on a local computer than it is using Midjourney:
The year is barely half over. Who knows what other AI ART programs will surface and improve before Christmas.
