Now, let's select the brush for trees. Can anyone tell me what happens when you draw a tree on the image?
The tool adds a tree in that spot?
Exactly! It generates a realistic tree right where you draw. Let’s try that out.
Whoa, it looks real! Can we do this with other items too?
Yes! You can add doors, windows, and clouds too. This shows how AI understands your intent to create realistic details.

Activity Instructions: Step-by-Step
In this section, we cover detailed instructions for effectively using the GAN Paint tool, allowing users to harness the power of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to edit images. The steps outlined provide clear guidance to help users engage with the tool:
Step 1: Open GAN Paint
- Navigate to https://ganpaint.io/.
- Allow the tool some time to load a default image, typically a building.
Step 2: Explore the Interface
- Familiarize yourself with the interface, which showcases the image on the left and editing options like Add Tree, Add Door, and Add Window on the right.
Step 3: Use the Brushes
- Select a specific brush (e.g., Tree), then draw the desired location on the image for adding a tree.
- Notice how GAN Paint instantly generates a realistic tree in the selected area.
Step 4: Try Other Tools
- Experiment with additional elements, such as doors, windows, and clouds. Observe how GAN intelligently modifies the surrounding image to seamlessly integrate your changes.
Step 5: Experiment with Undo and Reset
- Utilize the Undo button to revert the last action, or the Reset button to restore the original image.
This structured approach allows users to comprehensively explore GAN Paint and understand the transformative capabilities of AI in creative design.

Chapter Content
• Go to https://ganpaint.io/
• Wait for the tool to load a default image.
Detailed Explanation
In this step, you're instructed to open the GAN Paint web application. Start by typing the URL into your web browser's address bar and pressing Enter. Once the site loads, you will see a default image appear on your screen, typically featuring a building. This image serves as your starting point for all the edits you will make.
Examples & Analogies
Think of opening GAN Paint like opening a blank canvas in an art program on your computer. Just like how you would need a blank canvas to start painting your masterpiece, you need the default image in GAN Paint to begin your creative work.
Step 2: Explore the Interface

Chapter Content
• You will see an image (usually a building) on the left.
• On the right, there are options like Add Tree, Add Door, Add Window, etc.
Detailed Explanation
Now that the default image is visible, take a moment to familiarize yourself with the interface. On the left side of the screen, the image will be displayed, and on the right side, you'll find various tool options that allow you to add elements to the image, such as trees, doors, and windows. This setup helps you easily navigate the modifications you can make.
Examples & Analogies
Imagine visiting a home improvement store where you can browse different items to decorate a house. Similarly, in GAN Paint, the options on the right act like the items in the store, allowing you to pick and choose elements to enhance your image.
Step 3: Use the Brushes

Chapter Content
• Select a brush, for example: “Tree”.
• Draw in the image area where you want a tree to appear.
• Instantly, GAN Paint will generate a realistic tree in that spot.
Detailed Explanation
In this step, you will choose a tool or brush from the options available. For instance, if you want to add a tree, click on the 'Tree' option and then draw in the image where you envision the tree. The GAN Paint tool will immediately generate a tree that looks real, demonstrating the power of AI in image creation.
Examples & Analogies
This is similar to using a digital drawing tablet where selecting a brush allows you to paint whatever you like. In this case, GAN Paint automatically fills in a realistic tree based on the location you indicate with your drawing, just as an artist might sketch an outline for a painting and then add detail.

• Add or remove doors, windows, clouds, and more.
• You’ll notice GAN intelligently adjusts the surrounding image to match your edits.
Detailed Explanation
Here, you are encouraged to experiment by adding or removing various elements from your image, such as doors, windows, or clouds. As you make these changes, notice how GAN Paint automatically adjusts the image to ensure that the new elements blend seamlessly with the existing background, showing the advanced capabilities of AI in intervention and cohesion.
Examples & Analogies
Think of this action like decorating a cake. When you add or remove decorations, you want the overall appearance of the cake to stay appealing. Just like a skilled baker adjusts the cake's design to accommodate new elements, GAN Paint ensures that each edit complements the rest of the image.
Step 5: Experiment with Undo and Reset

Chapter Content
• Use the Undo button to remove the last change.
• Use the Reset button to return to the original image.
Detailed Explanation
In this final step, you'll utilize two important features: the Undo and Reset buttons. If you want to revert your last change, simply click on the Undo button, and the last edit will disappear. If you wish to start over from the original image, the Reset button will revert the canvas back to its starting state, clearing all modifications.
Examples & Analogies
It’s like editing a text document on your computer. If you accidentally delete something you like, you use the 'Undo' function to retrieve it. And if you don't like the direction the document is going, you might reset the content to start fresh with the original text.
