People have recommended I do some texture upscaling, but all these models are a lot more complicated than they seem. But wait, ChatGPT can use ESRGAN?

Yes, you can ask Chat GPT to use ESRGAN and Real ESRGAN. Please see my test results here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nASW3QDngzz2w-KDyQ_6e-4B5-LBdmLK/view?usp=shari...
And it seems it has several more models available, you only need to ask it what it can do and upload the texture or image you want it to work on. Very useful.
Claude might be the same.
ChatGPT even recommended more advanced models ( ESRGAN 4x+ / UltraSharp and DAT, among others - see my post above for its explanation)
I also wantd to mention, Chat GPT supposedly now has access to Adobe Photoshop, meaning you could ask it to modify a texture to your liking.
Like say, add metal/electronic/organic details that look like they belong in a Serious Sam game?
And I've read that Claude can prepare 3d model objects, if you ask it, or connect it to Blender?
Meaning you can ask it for any additional model you are needing for your mod, and then request textures for it.
Yeah, I saw that, I was just surprised that it can do that. Honestly, this might be something that should be kept to the final steps. Currently, things are subject to change and there's no sense in painstakingly going through each texture, before they're finalised.
At this point I'm actually trying to reduce AI use. Already, I've gotten a lot of coding help and textures, I don't want the mod to become even more defined by AI involvement.
