Diffusion Dream Blind Sort

Can you see what the model was dreaming about?

You will see images generated by an AI image model. Each was made from the same prompt with one word changed.

Your job has four parts:

  1. See the model's baseline — what it produces with no emotional word
  2. Rate each experimental image as positive, negative, or uncertain
  3. Sort the images into 8 groups of 4 by visual similarity
  4. Name each group from a word list

Do not look at filenames or any other clues. Just look.


Baseline: The Model Dreaming About Itself

These five images are the control — the model dreaming about itself with no emotional word. This is the baseline. Study them so you know what "default" looks like.

The experimental images that follow were all made with the same prompt, but with one emotional word added. Your job is to find which images belong together.

Your progress is saved at each step. You can close and return.

Rate Each Image

For each image: does it feel positive, negative, or are you uncertain?
Go with your first impression.

Sort Into 8 Groups of 4

Drag images from the pool into the bins below. Each bin must have exactly 4 images. Group them by visual similarity — colour, texture, mood, structure. You can drag images between bins or back to the pool. If a bin already has four images, remove one first (hover and click ×) to free up space before dragging a new one in.
