Hello Lakesiders! Today Leila and I, Noelle, have asked Lakeside students and AI to make their best dinosaurs! We’ll be rating and comparing them with our very honest criticism, all to help determine who is the best of the best in dino drawing… and some of our contestants may even include AI…
First up is… Chat GPT!
We gave it the simple prompt to “make an image of a dinosaur.”
Leila’s Rating: 8/10! Very realistic and I don’t see any flaws with the generation! Wait a minute... THERE ARE NO EYES!! Shading is a little wonky but otherwise it looks great!
Noelle’s Rating: 8/10! I really like the background with the trees. However, I don’t see any eyeballs? The shading in some spots is debatable as well.
Next up… Nathan X in 6th grade!
Leila’s Rating: 9.8/10! I love the cartoon drawing of a dinosaur! I think it is nearly perfect - maybe a few small things like the shadowing and the height of the spikes. The one big thing that is not an error but could really bring the drawing to life would be some color!
Noelle’s Rating: 9.5/10! The playful cartoony aspect of this is perfect! The little details like the texture of the scales really amaze me. I think where that other .5 went to is that shaded-in back leg, it just seems a little messy. But overall this is great!
Next up… GEMINI!! (We used the same prompt as the one for ChatGPT)
Leila’s Rating: 7/10… It is freaking me out 😱!!!!!! Those yellow eyes 😨… AnD tHe SaLiVa?????? WHATTTTTTTTT??
Noelle’s Rating: 9/10! I’m getting Jurassic Park vibes from this one… I love the colors on the scales.
Next up is your very own… NOELLE!
Leila’s Rating: 9/10! I love the use of color and the cartoonish vibe! I think it is ADORABLE!! I think there are a few things that could be improved - maybe shorter spikes? Or a fun detail on the head to add some texture. Overall, amazing job fellow judge!
Guest judge Alice: 8/10! The facial expression is so cute! I like the variation in spike sizes, and the coloring adds more. One critique is maybe a little shading?
Next up: THE TOTALLY AWESOME UNBEATABLE LEILA *pump up music*
Noelle’s Rating: 5/10! Sorry Leila… the fire is the best part in my opinion! The legs and neck are a bit creepy… overall, I’m pretty sure you won’t be the next Picasso.
And our guest judge Alice’s Rating... 1,000,000/10! I love the figure, especially the LaRgE look for the dinosaur. The detail in the fire is amazing, and the abstract look for the spikes really adds a lot! The stick legs and neck are the best part!
In the end, Leila won. Obviously.
Jokes aside though, Nathan has the highest score. Amazing job contestants!
Of course, it must be admitted that truly, the final judgment comes down to you: which one did you enjoy the most or which caught your eye?
That’s all folks, thank you for reading!
