These AI artworks of how World Cup football would look if filmed by iconic film directors are totally on the ball
Illustrator and animator Mason London gave his AI art assistant a rather wonderful assignment. He gave the AI art generator, Midjourney, a selection of prompts to create images of football matches as they would appear if directed by iconic film directors.
The results are scarily impressive and you’ll be tempted to kneel before our new AI overlords.
Here’s how it went…

I love the Michael Bay one because there are 26 players on the pitch. Accurate portrayal of how he'd direct a World Cup movie
