How to Upscale AI-Generated Images

Introduction

In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the process of upscaling AI-generated images using the Let's Enhance tool. Understanding what AI-generated images are, as well as the steps necessary to get the best results, is crucial. Here's a step-by-step guide for you.

What are AI-Generated Images?

AI-generated images are visuals created by artificial intelligence. Users generally provide the AI with a text prompt, and the AI renders a unique image based on the input. Due to the substantial processing power required and the high number of users, these images often come with a resolution cap. To overcome this, we can use tools like Let's Enhance to upscale the images.

Why Use Let's Enhance?

Because AI image generators have a resolution cap to avoid system overload, the images generated can be quite small. Upscaling these images with Let's Enhance helps increase their resolution, making them suitable for larger prints or higher quality displays.

Steps to Upscale Images Using Let's Enhance

Step 1: Access the Dashboard

1. Navigate to the 'My Images' section on Let's Enhance.
2. You will be taken to the image editing dashboard where you can upload your image using a folder icon.

Step 2: Upload Your Image

1. Click the folder icon and upload your AI-generated image.
2. For this tutorial, we'll use a DALL-E Mini rendering of Nicholas Cage made out of Swiss cheese.

Step 3: Choose Upscale Options

1. Note the original size of the image (e.g., 227 x 226 pixels).
2. On the dashboard's right side, you'll see four upscale type options.
3. Choose the appropriate upscale type based on your AI image generator:
   • Digital Art: For images like comic book styles from MidJourney.
   • Photo/Smart Resize: For photorealistic images like those from DALL-E.
4. For this example, we'll select 'Smart Resize.'

Step 4: Adjust Settings

1. Choose how much you want to upscale your photo. For instance, '6x' will increase the original resolution six times.
2. The output dimensions will be displayed (e.g., 1362 x 1356 pixels).

Step 5: Start Processing

1. Click the 'Start Processing' button and wait for the image to be processed.

Result Comparison

Once processed, you'll be shown a one-to-one comparison between the original and upscaled images. The upscaled version allows for more detailed zooms without pixelation, making it suitable for larger prints or detailed viewing.
