How do AI images work?

When you use the Sketch feature, your simple drawing acts as a prompt for the AI. The system then processes this input, combining it with its understanding of countless images it has been trained on. It uses complex algorithms to fill in the details, colours, and textures, transforming your basic lines into a sophisticated, detailed picture.
