AI Portraits of AI Cores
Hey everyone! This mod is a side project I've been working on while trying to distract myself from bigger projects for other games.
The central premise for these portraits is "What if an AI core created a human avatar for itself?" but there's nothing restricting anyone from using these with characters that aren't AI.
All the portraits were generated using Severian Void's Stable Diffusion model for Starsector portraits, using images of each AI core as a base. The images featured at the top are a selection of Alpha Core portraits.
There are currently two versions of this mod:
The lite version is an "Author's Cut", containing a selection of what I thought were the best and most varied portraits. There are 10 male and female portraits for each core, for a total of 80 new portraits.
The full version contains all the "decent" (read: non-cursed) portraits I generated for this project. It contains 295 new portraits. This can be a bit overwhelming, which is why I made the lite version.
Currently, both versions only add portraits to the player faction, so you can use them when selecting new characters, and they'll show up for officers in your faction. However, I'm also posting a patch that also adds the non-Omega based portraits to the vanilla AI portrait list. This is just an extra file, not a mod in and of itself, and should be merged with the base mod folder (the zip file already has the right folder structure).
Permissions are open, so if you want feel free to use any of these in your own mods.

Resources
If you wanted to try your hand at making portraits like this, here's some resources to help!
First, you'll need a working version of Stable Diffusion and Severian Void's Stable Diffusion Model.
I used a 2K upscaled version of each vanilla AI core to generate these portraits, which you can find here.
I used the same prompt and settings for each portrait (excepting a few that worked out nice while I was fine-tuning the prompts).
