This video provides a comparison between Grok 3 AI and Google Gemini 2 for portrait editing, highlighting why Grok is currently a superior choice for certain tasks.
Key Highlights & Summary
- Overcoming Restrictions: The presenter notes that Google Gemini often blocks portrait edits with “content not permitted” warnings, even for harmless prompts like changing a background to pink [01:23]. Grok 3 has significantly fewer restrictions on portraits [05:13, 08:22].
- High-Quality Edge Detection: Grok 3 excels at maintaining intricate details like hair strands when changing backgrounds, producing results comparable to skilled manual masking in Photoshop [04:32].
- Clothing and Scene Editing: The tutorial demonstrates changing a subject’s jacket to a pink suit and black tee while maintaining the original body shape [05:34].
- Maintaining Facial Consistency: While AI tools often slightly alter the subject’s face during edits [04:57], the presenter shows a workaround:
- Post-Processing: Since Grok outputs can sometimes be grainy or pixelated [07:23], the final step involves using a free upscaler like I Love IMG to sharpen the final result [07:45].
