There's a pretty clear expected transformation here though? It takes an image and then reduces the "shiny-ness" of it by giving it the same transformation: change the sky to overcast, add material degradation like rust, reduce the landscaping by adding weeds/puddles, and remove the happy looking people.

Also adding random electrical infrastructure and random signs, also removing a statue in the distance in one of the images

  • Sure, that stuff too. The point still being that it's a pretty predictable set of changes being made to whatever photo you give it.

    • I'm pretty sure it's either gpt-image-1.5 or Nano Banana Pro in the background, with a prompt like "make it look worn down and slightly decaying".
