Opinionated Dress Color Simulation

In plain words

Opinionated Dress Color Simulation is an interactive tool that explores color perception by letting users slide between three versions of a dress photo: one adjusted to appear blue and black, the original image, and one adjusted to appear white and gold. The tool subtracts or adds theoretical light color to demonstrate how lighting conditions affect how people perceive colors. It's designed for anyone curious about the science behind the famous viral dress image debate.

  I made a new AI colorizer2022 · palette.fm · ▲472

  Hi HN, I’m Emil, the maker behind Palette. I’ve been tinkering with AI and colorization for about five years. This is my latest colorization model. It’s a text-based AI colorizer, so you can edit the colorizations with natural language. To make it easier to use, I also automatically create captions and generate filters. Let me know what you think. You can see some of my results on my reddit page: https://www.reddit.com/user/emilwallner/?sort=top
