Redditor Hybective has posted 28 AI-generated images<\/strong><\/a> of some highly-unusual custom PC case designs created by the Midjourney AI image generator<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

The cases are intended for Mini ITX systems and primarily feature rotund designs, which one user said gave the impression that the AI had a “bit of a crush” on Portal character Wheatley.<\/p>\n

Hybective explained the bias towards this shape was due to his input for some of the designs including “sphere”.\u00a0 “I want spherical PCs to be a thing,” he said.<\/p>\n

He also explained he was an experienced 3D modeller with his own 3D printer and had ordered Mini ITX parts intending to try and make one of the AI-generated designs a reality.<\/p>\n

Below are images of some of the custom PC cases the designer created with Midjourney.<\/p>\n

Midjourney was recently also used by TikTok content creator Lucas Freitas to generate 41 images imagining countries as supervillains<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

This is not the first well-publicised example of someone calling in AI assistance for PC building in the past few weeks.<\/p>\n

Popular tech YouTuber Linus Sebastian, who founded the Linus Tech Tips channels, used advice from OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot to see if it was possible to assemble a PC<\/strong><\/a> without relying on his computer-building expertise.<\/p>\n

Among its shortcomings, the chatbot could not source pricing as it is not connected to the Internet, made some errors with choosing compatible components, and neglected to mention a few important steps \u2014 like putting the motherboard in the case.<\/p>\n

On the whole, however, Sebastian appeared impressed with ChatGPT’s ability to adapt its output whenever he pointed out these flaws.<\/p>\n
