Why I Start My AI Pipeline With an Intentionally Terrible Image

Generating a beautiful room with AI is easy now. But good luck generating a photorealistic 360掳 interior that actually follows the exact floor plan.

I had two days to build a presale prototype that could help win a project. I did just that, and its goal was simple: render the rooms of a house as photorealistic 360掳 interiors, make it possible to show the same spaces in different interior styles, and keep every result faithful to the source floor plan.
