That's... not very promising. They claim the alterations are barely visible to the human eye, but here there's a very visible and (at least to my eyes) visually unappealing layer of noise on the image, even at low settings. At the higher settings it no longer looks like noise but rather like a deliberate artistic decision, except one that was not in accordance with the original artist's intention at all.
Could be that this kind of image with large flat void areas is something of a worst case scenario for the tool. I tried to feed it some of my own art but I don't think my machine hits the minimum...
Could be that this kind of image with large flat void areas is something of a worst case scenario for the tool. I tried to feed it some of my own art but I don't think my machine hits the minimum requirements, it bugs out when doing anything more than previewing.
But if the preview is accurate, while it's better for photographs (still adds quite noticeable noise in sky/clouds), I couldn't really find any of my art that didn't end up having a weird overlay on top. It might not be noticeable if you're feeding it something very noisy like a painting with obvious brushstrokes everywhere (like their examples), but if there's smoothness or flatness or areas of general uniformity, it was pretty noticeable even on the lowest settings.
