Lesser known civilizations... Well, I would probably know them. Antique was my favorite part of history. I am doing Rome right now. Bohemia (Czechia) is probably next, but the Mayans and Malians are good candidates too. Would love to do Carthage even more, but upon the Roman capture of the city, not much was left and AI would be clumsy when approaching the idea I bet.
I can't find your post. Can you link me directly?
Lesser known civilizations in the sense of most average prompt authors aren't probably thinking of. Assyrian was one that i thought might be interesting. Sumerian was another i was curious to try out. I started so many different projects i never got back around to the cultural oriented portraits i was going to generate to then modify into my own art. You sound like you approach it more similar to how i may go about prompting. You may be right about that clumsiness due to lack of accurate info to go by.
But, in the future, AI may be able to extrapolate from other historical data points to make it's own projections. Kind of like aging a young person to generate what they may look like in the future. Here in Sweden, they just caught a murderer by using AI to do that. The future is looking pretty cool and terrifying at the same time.
Sure, i had a few A.I. posts from around last Oct. They are long so you don't have to read them but the links are in there to get to the discord and whatnot.
