Alright, let me walk you through what I was messing around with today. Just a simple idea, really. I got thinking, you know, you always see Adam Sandler in those baggy shorts and t-shirts. So, the question popped into my head: what would he actually look like cleaned up, wearing a proper suit?
Getting Started
So, I fired up the image generation tool I’ve been playing with. Nothing fancy to start. Just typed in the basics: ‘Adam Sandler in a suit’. Figured that would be straightforward enough. Hit generate and waited to see what popped out.
First Results & Problems
Well, the first batch was… interesting. Let’s just say the AI definitely knew who Adam Sandler was, and it knew what a suit was, but putting them together convincingly? That was another story. Some images had him looking like a cartoon character stuffed into a suit. Others, the suit looked kinda weird, like it was made of plastic or something. And a few just didn’t capture his face right, looked like a weird cousin instead.
It wasn’t quite the polished look I was picturing. More like ‘Adam Sandler awkwardly standing near a suit-shaped object’. Not great.
Trying to Refine It
Okay, back to the drawing board. I needed to give the AI more direction. I started adding more details to the prompt.
- Tried specifying the suit: ‘Adam Sandler in a sharp black tailored suit‘.
- Added context: ‘Adam Sandler wearing a suit at a formal event‘.
- Pushed for realism: Added ‘photorealistic‘, ‘high detail’.
- Thought about his expression: Initially tried ‘serious expression’, but that felt off. Switched to ‘slight smile’ or even just left it neutral to see what happened.
I ran generations with these tweaks. Definitely getting closer. The suits looked more like actual suits now, and the setting helped ground the image. But sometimes the face still looked wonky, or the proportions were a bit strange. It seemed to struggle making him look natural in formal wear, which, thinking about it, kinda makes sense.
More Fiddling Around
Spent a bit more time just tweaking keywords. Removed some, added others. Played with negative prompts too – things like ‘no baggy clothes‘, ‘no sneakers‘, ‘no goofy expression‘ (though I later removed that one, a little bit of goofy is fine). It’s a lot of trial and error, you know? You change one word, and the whole vibe shifts.
I noticed that specifying ‘tuxedo’ sometimes worked better than just ‘suit’. Maybe it’s a more defined concept for the AI? Who knows. Also played around with aspect ratios, seeing if a portrait style worked better than landscape.
Getting There
After a bunch of tries, maybe twenty or thirty generations deep, I started getting images that felt right. The key seemed to be a mix of specifying the type of suit clearly (like ‘classic black tuxedo’), adding ‘photorealistic’, and giving it a simple background context like ‘red carpet backdrop’ or ‘studio portrait’. Keeping the prompt relatively focused without too many conflicting ideas helped.
The ones that worked best had him looking like himself, just dressed up. Not stiff, not overly serious, just Adam Sandler… but in a suit. It captured that slightly awkward but still charming thing he does.
Final Thoughts
So, yeah, got some decent results in the end. It’s funny how such a simple concept – a guy in a suit – can take a bit of wrestling with the tool to get right. You really have to nudge it and guide it. It’s not magic, you gotta work with it. But the process itself is kinda fun, seeing how the machine interprets your words. Definitely ended up with a few images that answered my original question.
