legant meeting rooms with

walls covered in white

marble. Design coffee tables

with a glossy finish, backlit

onyx walls, living spaces

adorned with open-patterned quartz-

ites like natural artworks. What nature

has been creating for millennia and

humans have tamed with design now

lends itself to new creative possibilities

thanks to artificial intelligence, with an

astonishing level of realism in rep-

resentation.

The images in this feature were created

using Midjourney, one of the gener-

ative AI platforms for text-to-image,

which generates images based on tex-

tual input. The captions in the comics

indicate the "prompt," the text used

to generate them. We have provided a

summary that conveys the idea of how

relatively simple it is to ask a machine

to reproduce reality and along with it

its infinite possibilities
