Three AI Image Models Tested
LateNiteSoft ran 600+ image generations comparing OpenAI, Gemini, and Seedream across photo filters, style transfers, and creative edits. OpenAI excels at artistic transformations but adds "AI slop" to details. Gemini preserves realism but refuses edits on human photos. Seedream balances both approaches at lower cost and faster speed (9 seconds vs OpenAI's 80).
