Chapter 1: Introduction to AI Caricatures

In this post, I’m excited to share some insightful tips sourced from Lokai on Threads regarding the creation of caricatures using AI tools like Midjourney and DALL-E. For a more comprehensive understanding, I encourage you to explore the original thread. In summary, there are three distinct methods to generate caricatures of both well-known figures and everyday individuals through these AI platforms. By following these techniques, you can produce fun and distinctive caricatures.

Chapter 2: Utilizing Midjourney for Caricatures

The first method involves employing Midjourney with a specific prompt. You can create a comically exaggerated portrait of a celebrity by using the following phrase:

A comically exaggerated portrait of [celebrity], focusing on humorous and quirky features. Incorporate caricature-like elements and playful exaggeration to highlight the humor in their appearance --s 50 --ar 3:5 --style raw --v 6

Simply replace ‘[celebrity]’ with the name of your chosen figure, such as:

• Marilyn Monroe
• Michael Jackson
• Albert Einstein

Chapter 3: The DALL-E Approach via ChatGPT

The second technique leverages DALL-E in conjunction with ChatGPT. This method, referred to as ‘Focused Instability,’ requires you to provide a reference photograph. DALL-E will then craft a caricature based on that image. Use this command:

Me is: in the picture, use that as a description of Me

A comically exaggerated portrait of a “Me,” focusing on humorous and quirky features. Incorporate caricature-like elements and playful exaggeration to highlight the humor in the subject’s appearance.

Chapter 4: Midjourney with Image Reference

The third technique again utilizes Midjourney, but this time you will include a link to an image for reference instead of naming a specific celebrity. After uploading your photo, use the image link from Discord in your prompt as follows:

You can also use a link to an online image, such as one from Wikipedia:
