Eames' Powers of Ten Reimagined Using DALL-E 2's AI

The creator Adam Pickard used 57 prompts and the tool's inpainting feature.

Take a look at Adam Pickard's version of Eames' Powers of Ten created in DALL-E 2, a text-to-image AI tool. The author said they used DALL-E 2's inpainting feature and 57 prompts to then combine the results in Adobe After Effects.

Now, Pickard is working on a 4K version of the project. Follow the artist on Twitter to see it when it's done.
