Abstract
Generating images of items with artificial intelligence (AI)-generated backgrounds is described. An example process includes capturing an image(s) of an item, obtaining first image data that identifies a real-world background in the image(s), and presenting a user interface for a user of an electronic device to indicate a descriptor(s). The process may further include receiving, via the user interface, an indication of the descriptor(s), generating prompt data representing a prompt(s) based at least in part on the descriptor(s), sending the first image data and the prompt data to a server computer(s), receiving, from the server computer(s), second image data output by a trained AI model(s), the second image data representing an AI-generated image(s) with an AI-generated background(s), and presenting, based at least in part on the second image data, a candidate image(s) with the AI-generated background(s) for selection by the user.
