AI-generated art is a divisive topic, but you can't deny that it has its merits. Case in point, one GTA fan used AI to generate a modernized look of everybody's favorite characters from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and it went viral.
u/AaronGP shared the results of the AI creations on r/StableDiffusion, from which it has since been shared all over the net.
The "creator" used ControlNet, Img2Img, and RealisticVision, to improve the original pixelated versions of GTA: San Andreas characters. The influence of iconic N.W.A rapper, Eazy-E, on Ryder is obvious from the results.
GTA: San Andreas was recently given a second life with the release of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition. Unfortunately, the game was a bit of a disaster from the get-go and it hasn't improved much even after coming to Steam and the Epic Games Store.
