Basic Apple Guy shared more on the creative process of working with AI for this wallpaper on his blog today:
Introducing Big Starry Sur, inspired by the macOS 11 Big Sur wallpaper, redone the style of Vincent Van Gogh’s famous 1889 painting Starry Night.
I generated this image a while back using the AI image generator Midjourney. I ran several prompts a couple of dozen times using various variations of the phrase “Big Sur” and “Starry Night” before narrowing it down to an image I wanted & remastering it further to refine the generation. From there, I began using ML-upscaling, sharpening and making other edits to produce the final product.
